In Britain, dyslexia is included in the legal definition of disability. Some dyslexic<br />
people object to this, on the grounds that they are not impaired but simply<br />
different. Others state that for them, it is indeed a disability; for example, the<br />
common short-term memory and word-finding difficulties can be very<br />
frustrating. The key point is that a double-sided approach is needed: society (in<br />
which I include not only educational institutions and workplaces, but also public<br />
places such as supermarkets) must be more accessible and inclusive, and also<br />
dyslexic people must be pro-active. They need to be proactive both in a<br />
personal sense, by working to develop strategies which help them to achieve<br />
their goals, and in a political sense, by working to raise awareness of the need<br />
for accessible practices.<br />
