Diagnosed with dyslexia at age 7, Shahiem Ogbomo-Harmitt talks about how he was able to push through primary and secondary education to currently training to become a doctor at Kings College London.

In the latest webinar from Succeed With Dyslexia, Julia Clouter interviews trainee doctor, Shahiem Ogbomo-Harmitt about how having an early diagnosis and support gave him what he needed to successfully navigate through education to get to university.


If Shahiem’s story resonates with you and you would like to get support for your child or for yourself then the British Dyslexia Association has a helpline whereby you can get access to much needed information.
