Re: in shock
A good site and on reading some of the forums I think this sounds like me. Good to know there are people out there in the same situation. You can lead a normal life and I have been in an office job for 13 years and no one knows I have dyspraxia. I went to the Dore Centre in Kenilworth, Warwickshire ...

Re: Dyspraxia Education Video
To raise awareness of the condition is a good idea. We were talking about ways to try to raise awareness in my local group I attend in Walsall, West Midlands.

Re: Another famous dyspraxic
