Author Hannah Daly will share her experience living with dyslexia, dyspraxia and sensory processing disorder at an event next week at Kennys Bookshop in Galway city.

She will read from and talk about her recently published book, Knowing no Boundaries, which is a memoir of her life living with these conditions.

Hannah is a specialist paediatric Occupational Therapist and a mother of four. She has severe dyslexia, dyspraxia and sensory processing disorder, and the reading age of a 7-year-old, yet she has multiple university degrees.

Knowing No Boundaries gives an authentic, humorous, sad, uplifting and raw account of her life, and illustrates how she has succeeded without being able to read or write, while being perceived as ‘different’.

At the Kennys Bookshop event, Hannah will share her lived experience of these conditions, discuss the barriers that she encountered, highlight the importance of valuing difference and outline how to support people to reach their maximum potential.

The event is free and everyone is welcome to attend. Copies of the book will be available to order and can be signed by the author on the night.

Admission to the event can be reserved here.
