PhD Group for dyslexic students

We are excited to be running a PhD Group for dyslexic students undertaking their PhD and Doctorates. 

The aim of the PhD community is to provide peer support to those with dyslexia who are embarking on or undertaking their PhD, yay!!

We hope to achieve this in the following ways:

  • Advocacy for research undertaken by dyslexic PhD students
  • Promotion and building reputation of dyslexic PhD students and their research
  • Provide the group with access to dyslexic research leader in the field through research podcasts, Facebook live interviews, facilitating research that others are doing in line with our strategic plan and developing international research networks.
  • As to date, our enquiries have come from PhD students from a range of disciplines and presenting their studies informally to peers will forge strong research links that DDF would provide a pathway towards sharing across institutions and even countries.
  • Help raise awareness of dyslexia nationally and internationally.
  • Turning our research into practice by informing policy change and support our work with the government.



You can join our PhD Facebook Community https://www.facebook.com/groups/4102264573199731 or come along to our monthly catch-ups with guest speakers.

  • Dysgraphia, what is it?

    Dysgraphia, what is it?

    Dysgraphia is a learning difficulty. When you go back to its Greek roots, it’s a combination of ‘dys’ meaning difficulty and ‘graph’ meaning to write – so it’s literally difficulty writing.
