Code REaD Dyslexia Network presents our annual ‘Light it Red for Dyslexia’ campaign, designed to Raise Dyslexia Awareness by lighting significant monuments, buildings and landmarks RED during Dyslexia Awareness Month each October.
#LIR2024 made history with more than 100 structures across Australia participated in last year’s light up event, making it the largest “Light Up” ever in Australia.
WHY ALL THE RED?
Ask any dyslexic about their school experience and they will tell you about the gut wrenching fear of receiving back their school work covered in red crosses and comments. When Light it Red started in 2015, it was about taking back the power of that colour to raise awareness. The colour influenced our name Code Read (pronounced RED) Dyslexia Network. Red is disruptive and cannot be ignored but it also highlights the urgency of the situation. In effect we wanted to say that it is time to stop sweeping this important issue under the carpet and take action.
OUR VISION IS FOR ALL PEOPLE WITH DYSLEXIA TO BE UNDERSTOOD, ACKNOWLEDGED, EMPOWERED AND TO HAVE EQUAL ACCESS TO OPPORTUNITY.
