Recently confirmed as dyslexic, Zoe Wanamaker
collected an award celebrating her professional achievements at
the Dyslexia
Action charity gala held on 7th November 2006. Other well-known
figures honoured at the event include Alan and Della Pascoe and
Lord Richard Rogers. During the evening, £140,000 was
raised to support those affected by dyslexia throughout the UK. |
Of her award Zoë has said: 'I have always suspected that I might be dyslexic but this was not confirmed until I was formally assessed by Dyslexia Action this year. And what a relief, I can tell you! I am very honoured to receive this award and I hope I can be of some inspiration to young people struggling with dyslexia.' |
