Simple church and home adjustments

In today’s episode we speak to Zoe Strong about dyslexia and faith. Zoe Strong is an AHRC-funded doctoral researcher exploring dyslexia and engaging with the Bible. She also heads up the University of Aberdeen’s Autism and Theology Podcast, and is the neurodiversity topic editor for Practical Theology Hub. We talk to her about the challenges that people with dyslexia might face at church or exploring faith at home and how we can all be part of supporting children and young people with dyslexia in our homes and churches.
