Welcome to Future Foundations for Dyslexia!

Your one stop for diagnosis, information, guidance and support for Specific Learning Difficulties 

Founded in Bury Future Foundations for Dyslexia are passionate about delivering equal opportunities for anyone who has dealt with learning disabilities.

We offer a range of services both face to face and remotely

 

Future Foundations for Dyslexia provides practical support, advice and information to individuals with Dyslexia, Dyscalculia and Dyspraxia as well as other SpLDs. We work with parents, education providers and employers as part of a process which could include assessments, workplace needs advice and awareness training.​

We understand that each learner has an individual learning style as unique as them; our knowledge of SEN enables our team to highlight indicators of other additional needs including Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder or Attention Deficit Disorder (ADHD or ADD), Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Dyspraxia (DCD) and refer on to the relevant professionals.​

With a longstanding background in specialist education and many years of teaching experience you can guarantee a warm, professional and empathetic service.

“Gemma was very helpful when I first made contact and provided clear advice. She was excellent at putting my child at ease during the assessment and explaining the process and approach. Following the assessment, she wrote a comprehensive report with many useful references and resources that will be helpful in the future. The service provided represented excellent value.”
“Our setting frequently use Gemma and team as they provide a quality service. Flexibility with dates, highly experienced staff and bespoke, detailed reports. Would highly recommend. Thank you.”
“Gemma has been absolutely fantastic with my 10 year old son who was really struggling at school. She reassessed his Dyslexia and also assessed him for Dyscalculia. He really does struggle with his confidence but Gemma supports him at his level and is also really interested and knowledgeable regarding all his quirky interests which really helps! She is also available for me if I need any advice and has provided much comfort within all aspects of the neuro diverse rollercoaster. Thanks so much Gemma”
“I have used Gemma for over 2 years now to help my son who has difficulties. Not only has she improved our son, she has helped us navigate the special educational system, gave ours sons school help, and helped us with his EHCP and appeals when the school have said one thing and done another. Gemma has saved us thousands in doing assessments for us and guidance. She has attended official council meetings and gave a more professional take than the school could evidence. Best thing we did for our son.”
“Gemma has supported our grandson over the last two years with both his maths and reading and writing skills. She is always thorough with her preparation and has an in depth knowledge of providing additional support. He always enjoys working with her and she knows exactly how to pitch the work to keep him interested. As a result he has made excellent progress and we hope she will continue to support him as he goes through school.”
