Charity launches bold new drive to bust myths - from Comic Sans to coloured overlaysDyslexia Scotland has unveiled a new national campaign to tackle the myths still fooling Scots about one of the country’s most misunderstood learning differences. The campaign comes hot on the heels of a survey of 1,740 people, which revealed widespread confusion. Coloured overlays, meanwhile, may help with visual stress - which often co-occurs with dyslexia - but they don’t ‘fix’ dyslexia itself. Chief executive Cathy Magee said: “Scotland can only become truly dyslexia-friendly when people know what dyslexia is - and what it isn’t. It’s a lifelong, language-based difference, and with the right support, people with dyslexia can thrive in education, work and life.
