Disclosing Dyspraxia
I got asked for some advice from fellow dyspraxic blogger and all round lovely person Natalie the other week, Natalie is about to start university in the next few weeks and is anxious about disclosing dyspraxia to other people on her course. This is going to be a very honest blog, if it's something which you think you could also share some advice about please do so and feel free to give some in the comment box below. Normally in my blogs I talk about dyslexia and dyspraxia, but I think it's important given the different level of awareness and understanding for this one it's going to be mainly a dyspraxic one.
