About Us

Right to Write is a private limited company and has been in existence since 1996; working throughout the UK with dyslexic adults to help them overcome the barriers and consequently fulfill their potential.

Our approach is different in that it is holistic; we look at all the issues an adult with dyslexia will face, such as the softer issues i.e.: lack of confidence, fear of certain situations (such as reading out loud), managing stress and boosting memory. This is in contrast to traditional approaches which only address literacy which is often not the primary problem within an employment situation.

We work as a specialist contractor to Jobcentre Plus through Work Preparation and other specialist contracts helping those with hidden disabilities to gain or retain employment. Another part of our service is in advising employers to accommodate and consequently get the best out of dyslexic employees. This is often a source of great stress between Management and dyslexic staff as there is little understanding of the Disability Discrimination Act which asks employers to make ´reasonable adjustment´ for an employee´s disability.

The Managing Director of Right to Write, Elaine Ferguson MBE FRSA is Dyslexic, she along with the exceptional team of people at Right to Write believe that with the right support Dyslexic people can make a great contribution to any organisation.
