The Basingstoke woman learning to read in her 40s

There are an estimated 2.4 million adults in England who find it hard to read – ReadEasy in Basingstoke is a charity who provides support for this.

One of the people helped by ReadEasy is Paula. She was diagnosed with dyslexia just before her GCSEs and was inspired to work on her reading after watching the ѿý documentary “Jay Blades: Learning to Read at 51”, following the Repair Shop presenter’s journey to improve his own reading.

ѿý Radio Berkshire’s Alex Meakin speaks to Paula at one of her ReadEasy sessions to find out more.
