A DARLINGTON dyslexia charity is holding a coffee morning to raise awareness of the condition.
Dyslexia Action, in Woodland Road, Darlington, will host the coffee morning on Saturday, for parents and carers to find out more about dyslexia and how to help with a new support group.
The event is part of Dyslexia Awareness Week, which started on Monday.
Organisers are asking people to sign a petition to make dyslexia and specific learning difficulties training mandatory within initial teacher training.
The coffee morning takes place from 10am to noon.
