Membership
Membership of Dyslexia Ireland is open to any interested individual. It is both a way of supporting the work of Dyslexia Ireland and also a way to access member benefits. Members receive regular eNewsletters/updates, reduced rates for many events, and some of our services are reserved for members (e.g. access to workshops and tutor lists).
Assessment Service
An Assessment Service is run from our national office. We have a team of educational psychologists who provide a range of assessment services. We work with children, young people and adults, and offer assessments for dyslexia and assessments for dyscalculia.
Information Service
An Information Service is run from our national office – via post, phone, email, website, and social media messaging. Information is also provided by personnel at our network of nationwide workshops. Email our Info Team at info@dyslexia.ie and check out our the Info section of this website, as well as our two online learning sites: DyslexiaHub.ie is our site for parents and young people, and AdultDyslexiaHub.ie is our site for dyslexia adults and those seeking more info about adult dyslexia.
Training Courses
Dyslexia Ireland runs a wide range of training courses for parents, teachers/tutors, community groups, adults with dyslexia and workplaces. Bespoke training is also sometimes available on request.
Classes
Dyslexia Ireland runs a network of workshops across Ireland for children and young people with dyslexia. These offer weekly outside of school classes focused on supporting their literacy and learning skills development, and also building their confidence and self esteem.
Dyslexia Ireland also maintains a list of trained tutors who offer one-to-one tuition.
Adult Dyslexia Coaching Service
Dyslexia Ireland is piloting a new free Adult Dyslexia Coaching Service in 2025, funded as part of our SOLAS adult service grant. This service has been developed in response to the real need for practical, strengths-based support to help adults with dyslexia navigate challenges, whether in education, work, or daily life.
Lobbying and Campaigning
Dyslexia Ireland has a long and proud history of lobbying and campaigning for, and on behalf of, children, young people and adults with dyslexia in Ireland. Much of the improved awareness and provision currently on offer has been due to the sustained campaigning done by Dyslexia Ireland and our members. However, this is an ongoing process as there is more work to do to make Ireland a truly dyslexia-friendly society.
Fundraising activities
As a charity with limited state support, Dyslexia Ireland is very reliant on fundraising to enable us to continue to provide our services.
