MADEBYDYSLEXIA

Made by Dyslexia X GCHQ

We worked with global charity Made by Dyslexia and GCHQ, the UK’s intelligence and cyber agency, to champion the unique skills dyslexia brings to keep the UK safe.

In a vodcast called the D.Spot - which boldly redefines dyslexia - Jo Cavan, a senior GCHQ director, joined two dyslexic spies to explore the dyslexic strengths that make them ideal spies for the modern era. 

Their dyslexic strengths include pattern recognition when dealing with big data, seeing the bigger picture when considering complex future scenarios and finding solutions to novel and challenging problems.

The stories they told made national news with coverage and interviews with Made by Dyslexia and GCHQ across BBC World Service, BBC Radio 5 Live, The Times, The Guardian, Indie100 and UNILAD.
