European Dyslexia Awareness Week 2021

To mark European Dyslexia Awareness Week 2021, the “PIGSY” short film is being presented and shared on the social media pages of Irish Libraries. Directed by Filmmaker Mike Andrews it was originally screened in Film Festivals in the UK and Ireland including the prestigious Film Fleadh in Galway. In 2021, it went on to be screened as part of the Ranelagh Arts Festival. And now to raise awareness of Dyslexia it is being shared by Irish Libraries, including Tipperary Library, Meath Library and Donegal Library and also the Europe Direct Centre in Ballinasloe.

Dyslexia Awareness Day

Dyslexia Week runs from the 4th of Oct to 10th of Oct 2021 with Dyslexia Day taking place on Friday 8th of Oct 2021.
