Using simulated images, her own family’s experiences and her detailed knowledge of successful interventions, the author brings these challenges to life and offers helpful guidance to parents and teachers alike. A must-read for everyone involved in education."" - Kathryn Albany-Ward, Founder and CEO of Colour Blind Awareness. “This book focuses on the impact of colour blindness and some of the simple adjustments educators can make to help mitigate the effects.” - Beth McLaren, former Head Teacher “The strategies in this book are easy to implement and make a big difference. Removing barriers at grassroots level is crucial.” - Phil Murray, Club Secretary, Stocksfield FC “I can honestly say the sort of adjustments this book talks about have really helped. I’m lucky to have been well supported."" - Marcus, Year 11 student
