Have you ever wondered why some children don’t seem to be able to learn to read?

Over the years many teachers have referred children to us for visual assessment, but may have wondered just what we do when we see a child and how we are able to assist.
Throughout the year we offer a number of free evening training events for both parents and teachers. These evenings are an opportunity to visit the practice and to hear about some of the latest research into vision, dyslexia and dyspraxia - and how our work is able to help.
The evenings start with a complimentary light buffet from approximately 6.30pm and are followed by a talk from Keith Holland at 7.30pm, lasting about an hour. There is also an opportunity to ask questions over coffee and to see some of the specialis equipment and tests that we use.
For details of events at both of our practices, please go to our new website at www.keithholland.co.uk and go to the vision and learning section.
Colour Me Beautiful Evening Success

On Thursday 22nd Feb, we held an exclusive evening at our St Pauls practice for some of our patients. On an invitation only policy, patients were invited to come along to the event along with a guest of their choice. After a light buffet, we all sat down to watch a colour demonstration by Colour Me Beautiful representitive - Sue Trevoski. By looking at aspects such as colouring and body shape, as well as personality, lifestyle and budget, she was able to advise patients on how to achieve the image they really wanted.
It was a fantastic atmosphere - and we are truly grateful to all those patients who attended. We hope they and their guests had a fabulous time! I think we all learnt something from the evening and it was so enjoyable we are looking to hold some similar events later in the year. If you wish to be put on our events guest list please email davina@keithholland.co.uk with your name, address and date of birth. Also, please don’t forget to say which practice you are registered with!
We look forward to seeing you all again soon.
