Dyslexia Information Day will be held at Enginuity in Coalbrookdale, Ironbridge on Saturday.

The event, which celebrates its 10th anniversary this year, will once more be organised by Elizabeth Wilkinson, a specialist teacher who is dyslexic herself.

A number of groups offering information and advice to dyslexics will be taking part in the event, as well as organisations such as Shropshire Fire and Rescue Service which will demonstrate their work with people who have the condition.

Businesses run by dyslexics will also be showing what they offer.

The event will be open from 11am to 3pm, with last entry at 2.30pm. Admission is free.
