A few DJs mention they are dyslexic in passing, but nobody has really gone into it in much detail. Is Jordan one? It must be quite hard at times!

Not aware of Jordan being dyslexic but as @Jono said Mollie King is an example and she has done some ambassador work for the dyslexia charity in the UK. I know through the Christmas line-ups of the past few year4s they had presenters who are autistic possibly also ADHD and dyslexic. I know Xanthe Palmer who has done some production work on Radio 1’s Lifehacks has dyspraxia but think by X bio she works at Persephonica productions and Radio Sheffield broadcasting came to light that Katie Thistleton has ADHD recently. 

I think with neurodivergent conditions if you have your coping mechanisms and strategies can make it so that your traits aren’t as visible. I’ve been able to interview a Times Radio broadcaster about his ADHD for a podcast that I do and know he is good friends wiith Jordan North, Darryl Morris. Think the broadcasting industries can be places to thrive.
