Bursary Applications are currently closed

We regret that bursary applications are currently closed until further notice, due to high volume of enquiries.

Bursary applications will re-open as soon as funding becomes available.

Please check our website (Dyslexia Services pages) where the status of bursary applications is displayed (i.e. open or closed)


  • Tell us what difference you think our service that you are applying for (assessment/tuition/consultation) would make to your/your child’s life?
  • Tell us about the challenges faced and what you hope will change in context of home, education, work, and leisure.
If you would prefer to discuss this, rather than write it down, please feel free to contact us on 01252 792 400 or [email protected].

To ensure our bursaries are used for those with the greatest financial need, please explain your financial circumstances by answering as fully as possible.

Please note that if you fail to provide all the required financial information, your booking enquiry with bursary application will be rejected and you will need to start the whole process again.


Please note that we may also request copies of relevant paperwork to support bursary applications.

Please note that assessment payments can be made in up to 3 instalments before the assessment date. Tuition payments can be made at regular intervals and sessions are invoiced monthly after they take place.
