Adult Support Group
The Dyslexic Adult Support Group exists to help individual dyslexics overcome their difficulties. Most of all, the group is there to share experiences with other dyslexics who understand. Dyslexic adults often lack confidence in their abilities. That is why we encourage anyone who may be apprehensive about attending the Dyslexic Adult Support Group meetings to bring along a friend. Most meetings are based around a theme and there will usually be a guest speaker. Group members also get the chance to discuss successes or difficulties they may be having. Meetings start at 7pm and are held at the Glasgow College of Building and Printing (The Glasgow Metropolitan College), Seminar Room B, First Floor, 60 North Hanover St, G1 2TG.
