Dyslexia is one of the most common learning disabilities, researchers believe dyslexia affects about 15 - 20% of the population.

Teenage documentary maker Elliot Jones disrupts stereotypes of dyslexia by presenting the strengths and capabilities of dyslexic thinking. He hopes that by opening the conversation with inspirational speakers from New Zealand with dyslexia, it will invite a more open and thriving narrative about how dyslexia can take you places you may never have imagined.

Elliot directed and produced the documentary, Unlocking Potential while in his final year at school and he sees it as a tool to help reshape society’s perception of dyslexia and get you inspired about the future of dyslexic thinking.

Elliot was interviewed on The Project, you can view his interview here.
