It was Wynford Dore’s quest to find a solution to his daughter Susie’s problems that sparked the remarkable breakthrough at the heart of the Dore Programme. Now, six years after its inception, the groundbreaking, drug-free programme for dyslexia and associated has been introduced in South Africa following remarkable success with over 25 000 patients in the United Kingdom, the United States and Australia.

Dore, the founder of the pioneering programme which boasts a 93% success rate, will visit the country to present material at two evening talks in Durban on Monday 24th July and Tuesday 25th July. His presentations coincide with the recent launch of a local DORE Achievement Centre in Durban North, which will provide children, their parents and adults experiencing the often devastating effects of these conditions, the opportunity to live a life with largely improved quality and meaning. Dore developed his programme, previously known as DDAT, after his own experience of almost losing his severely dyslexic and deeply depressed eldest daughter to suicide. Despite Dore being a multimillionaire after 25 successful years in the UK steel industry and owning a boat in Spain, his life was anything but plain sailing. Susie’s severe dyslexia made her slow at school, isolated, withdrawn and eventually suicidal. Says Dore, “People regarded me as hugely successful, but I believe you’re only successful if your children are happy. Susie had difficulty with basic skills such as reading and writing, which meant that she suffered hugely from low self-esteem and lack of confidence, preventing her from enjoying the quality of life that the rest of us take for granted.
