Oliver Knott excelled in school from childhood through university. No surprise there because Knott was lucky enough to attend one of the UK’s prestigious grammar schools, which set him on a path to success.

But – his brother, who did not attend the same school and struggled as a student, had a very different educational experience growing up. UNTIL – he was diagnosed with dyslexia which changed his life. And – Oliver’s life too. Dramatically.

By listening to our show today about this champion for dyslexic people - including his brother - you’ll learn about:

  • How Knott used his schooling and his brother’s schooling to shape his early career and drives him every day at International Dyslexia Learning Solutions;

  • Why Knott returned to the more financially depressed part of the UK where he grew up - the NW part - and how he plans to make a difference in his hometown;

  • And how working at a supermarket after college for five years gave Knott experiences that taught him a lifetime of lessons about the inequality facing people today.

Breakers band together as we talk to a champion of all people – especially dyslexic people – Oliver Knott.
