We had a very interesting visitor today. Ginny Williams-Ellis called in for a book but while in the shop she told us a bit about 'Read Easy'.
It's a scheme intended to help those with reading difficulties make that breakthrough that they couldn't manage earlier in life.
Apparently, about one in six people have difficulty with their reading so it is a much more common problem than many non-readers realise.
There's a new group being started, I believe based in Evesham.
There is a site at www.readeasy.org.uk and I expect there will soon be news of a local branch there. So, if you know anyone with this problem or would like to act as a volunteer, keep an eye on that address.
('History and update' gives some details of Ginny.)
