How to Contact Richmond Dyslexia Association or Join Its Mailing List

The fastest way to reach Richmond Dyslexia Association (RDA) and to start receiving updates is to email [email protected]. According to the organisation's own site, sending a message to that address automatically adds you to updates about upcoming events. If you prefer social media, RDA also shares events and information through its Facebook page, and the website has a dedicated "Mailing List" link for subscribing.

Contacting RDA by Email

RDA is a voluntary organisation that promotes awareness of dyslexia and literacy difficulties in Richmond upon Thames, Kingston and surrounding areas, and advises parents and teachers on available advice and support. Email is the contact route the site itself highlights.

• Address: [email protected]
• What happens next: the site states that emailing this address gets you automatically updated on upcoming events, so you do not need to complete a separate sign-up form to receive event news.
• Good reasons to write: asking about talks, workshops and coffee mornings; requesting guidance on support for a child or a school; or asking to be added to the update list.

A simple message template

If you are unsure what to write, a short message is enough:

Subject: Add me to RDA event updates

Hello, I would like to be added to your updates about upcoming events and talks. I am a [parent / teacher] in [area]. Please let me know about anything coming up this term. Thank you, [Your name]

Expected result: you receive information about forthcoming RDA events and activities. The site does not describe response times, so treat the reply timeline as unknown rather than guaranteed.

Joining the Mailing List

The website includes a Mailing List entry alongside its main sections (About Dyslexia, What We Do, New Events, Useful Links, New Books). Use that link if you want to subscribe through the site rather than by email.

• Via the website: open the Mailing List link in the site navigation and follow the subscription steps shown there.
• Via email: message [email protected] and, per the site, you will be automatically updated on upcoming events.

Both routes lead to the same outcome — hearing about RDA's programme of talks, workshops and coffee mornings. The site does not state a fee for joining the list, so do not assume either free or paid membership; ask directly if cost matters to you.

Following RDA on Facebook

RDA maintains a Facebook presence where it shares events, helpful information "and much more." Following the page is useful if you want updates to appear in your feed without waiting for email.

• Best for: casual, ongoing awareness of events and shared resources.
• Less suited for: private questions about a specific child or school, which are better directed to the email address.

Finding Events and Talks

RDA hosts a wide range of events through the year with speakers "from all walks of life," including talks, meetings and discussions. The site notes a new series of talks coming in autumn in Richmond, with details on the Events page.

To stay informed:

1. Email [email protected] to be added to event updates.
2. Check the Events page for the latest listings.
3. Follow the Facebook page for reminders and shared information.
