Ashling Middleditch: Dyslexic Thinker, High Performer, Neurodiversity Supporter
Update: 2022-10-26
Description
It’s Dyslexic Awareness Month and in the latest episode of Walking the Walk we speak to TalkTalk’s Service Improvement Manager Ashling Middleditch.
As a child, Ashling faced challenges such a concentration and presentation – but performed highly academically and with interpersonal skills, being curious and problem solving. In her late 20s, she was diagnosed with Dyslexia, something she refers to as a ‘difference’. She tells guest presenter Kacee Fennelly how this is common particularly for females who often mask their behaviours and symptoms more effectively.
In this episode, Ashling shares her experience of growing up and how having Dyslexia means she thinks differently. And thanks to the TalkNeurodiversity employee network at TalkTalk, Ashling has a strong support community around her to share and receive advice.
