About us
Who we are
Helen Arkell is a registered charity, founded by Helen, Joy Pollock and Elisabeth Waller. It first opened its doors in London on 26 April 1971. We have been based at Frensham in Surrey, since 1987.
At Helen Arkell, we are passionate about removing barriers to learning and life, such as dyslexia. We want to promote unsung skills, champion new ways of approaching life. We give people the tools they need to learn in their own way. We train dedicated professionals to inspire people to love learning. We help parents to nurture their children and employers to support their staff.
Together we inspire people to believe in themselves, achieve their goals and succeed on their own terms.
At Helen Arkell, we’re proud to be a place where "different" is extraordinary.
