We are excited to announce our Dyslexia Guild Annual Online Conference for 2026!
The conference will be held online on Wednesday, 1 July 2026 with a chance to hear expert views and examine current topical issues relating to dyslexia and other SpLDs.
You’ll have the chance to listen to our four keynote speakers, who will be providing a range of different presentations to suit all of us. You will learn about current work at the University of Edinburgh, focussing on the heritability of dyslexia and how genetics interact with our environment. For those of us who carry out assessments for disabled student allowance, or work to support students in further and higher education, you will also hear about changes in how students with SpLDs are supported in this setting. We will also find out about current research at King’s College, London, where attitudes towards ADHD have been measured and where we learn more about the link between positive self-views in adults with ADHD and general mental health. The day will end with a presentation about orthographic processing, a feature of dyslexia that has been the focus of recent attention, and a factor that we are keen to explore further to help us in our assessment processes, and the latest updates from our very own Dyslexia Action Shop.
Why not benefit from taking time out of your daily schedule to learn and reflect on cutting-edge practice.
