Irlen Awareness Week 2024

It is Irlen Awareness Week from the 14th – 18th of October. This is a week dedicated to raising awareness about Irlen Syndrome. Irlen Syndrome is a problem with the brain’s ability to process visual information and can be shown in a variety of different ways. When it comes to reading and writing, someone with Irlen Syndrome may experience the page appearing blurry, floating letters, duplicated words, and shaking or swirling on the page. This makes simple tasks at school, work or home difficult to complete.

Did you know that 14% of the general population and 46% of people with reading or learning difficulties suffer from Irlen Syndrome?

At Pukka Pads, we understand the importance of having the right resources to support those with Irlen Syndrome, especially students and professionals who rely on written materials every day. We’re proud to offer a range of products designed to help ease the discomfort associated with this condition, making learning, working, and note-taking more accessible and enjoyable for students and working professionals.

With the help of our Pukka Pads Irlen range, those affected by Irlen Syndrome can experience improved reading and writing experience, minimising visual distortions, increasing comfort and enchanting concentration. We have a range of Irlen products available on our website, take a look at them below!

1. Exercise Books

For students, especially children in school, our exercise books are designed to reduce visual stress. The tinted paper helps minimise the contrast between black ink and white paper, making reading and writing easier. This is a simple yet effective tool for improving focus and comprehension for those with Irlen Syndrome in school.

2. Irlen Overlays

Contrast and brightness are key factors that can cause discomfort for those with Irlen Syndrome, making everyday reading and writing more challenging. That’s where our Irlen overlays come in, by simply adjusting the contrast of the page, individuals can experience a significant improvement in visual clarity and comfort. The pack of 5 overlays can be easily switched between books, notebooks, and even printed materials, making them a convenient solution for both students and professionals.

3. A4 and A5 Jotta Notebooks and Refill Pads

Our A4 refill pads, jottas and A5 notebooks with tinted paper are designed for those with Irlen Syndrome, making note-taking easier and more comfortable. Our notebooks are available in a range of colours and are ideal for students at school, college or university, as well as professionals at work. The A4 and a5 notebooks are ideal for writing daily tasks and note-taking, providing a practical, and supportive solution for managing visual discomfort.

This Irlen Awareness Week, we invite you to explore our range of products and share them with someone who might benefit from them. With the right tools, we can all help make the world a more inclusive place for those with visual perception difficulties.

By raising awareness and providing supportive products, we can create a more comfortable learning and working environment for everyone.
