Hi Karen!
we are serving print-disabled people, and that includes people with dyslexia.
Most of the times, our problem is that people with dyslexia dont always qualify as print-disabled according to European and Greek Law - so we really have to advertise our services through their unions just to get them to contact us.
When we do so, the number of people with dyslexia asking for our services rises and reaches up to 30%

Dear colleagues,
I have a quick question for you.
Are you serving people with perceptual disabilities such as dyslexia?
If so, what percentage of the people you serve have perceptual disabilities such as dyslexia, and what percentage are blind, visually impaired or physically disabled?
Thanks in advance for your responses.
