' I have been using Turning Pages for a few months now. It's helping because I can keep repeating work until I remember it. I enjoy doing the work every day. My English has improved a lot. I was able to write a birthday card for my friend and I can now write my own letters.'

'Turning Pages gave me a good base that I was able to use in ESOL classes. Recently I've achieved a diploma in Site Carpentry L2. I'm studying Construction Technology Theory L3. All this was possible because Shannon Trust gave me the confidence and opportunity.'

If you have any problems with your reading, writing, spelling, why not give Shannon Trust a go? They do this thing called Turning Pages..

Sarah overcame her anxiety about her own dyslexia to go on to be a brilliant Turning Pages mentor. What she thought was would be a weakness turned out to be a strength because of the understanding and empathy she brought to her mentoring.
