Default Anybody know about the "Dore Programme" (in UK)

Has anybody had any dealings with these people ?
They have a slick web site and a fast phone follow up to E-mail inquiries.

BUT it is a payed for service and I just want to know if they are worth
the money.

Regards
Matt Baker

dore certinaly have it's detractors who point out it's never so far (to
the best of my knowlege) put it's ideas though proper testing, there is
also the charge of hard sell.

on the other hand for some it appears to work.

they do seem to be in a area that others are so the product may work but
the company does seem to suck.

There is a rather critical editorial about Dore, "A Cure for
Dyslexia?", in this week's Nature Neuroscience. (One of the top 3
academic neuroscience journals.)

Here's another article on it which may be of interest - also pretty
critical.

(No personal experience with the programme or the company.)
