Welcome to Remarkable Minds

Our business was born from a dyslexic son, a long standing friendship, a late diagnosis and a shared passion to change the world!

Back in 2014, with years of experience with her dyslexic son and the brand new realisation that she was dyslexic herself, Vanessa began training as a Davis facilitator.

Fast forward 4 years and the struggles of running a business alone and being neurodiverse were becoming overwhelming, a fortuitous conversation on a plane to Bali changed everything!

Becky, a friend of more than 20 years and, a well known slightly bossy organiser, with more neurodiversity in her family that you can shake a stick at, quickly saw the potential in Remarkable Minds and a collaboration was born.

Since then the business has gone from strength to strength, growing from offering one to one programmes to now having group and online programmes and expanding into the corporate market.

It’s our mission to make the world a better place for neurodiverse people, just speak to us for 5 minutes and we’ll tell you all about it!

    Vanessa Victor

    Co- Founder

    My Neurodiversity journey started as a worried mother back in 2007. I was searching for a way to help my dyslexic son. He was struggling at school and I could see my bright, confident, happy boy becoming less confident and sure of himself. I was desperate to help him and understand him. I read the Gift of Dyslexia, and at last someone was describing my son and what was happening for him.

    Completing a Davis Dyslexia Programme changed his life and mine!. His programme led me to my own realisation that I was Dyslexic (at the age of 42!), this inspired me to train as a dyslexia facilitator and profession and my life passion.

    I never tire of helping people understand themselves, removing their limiting beliefs and guiding them to find their authentic selves.

    Life is a lot less stressful now that I understand my own neurodiversity and it’s my passion to spread that to everyone else.

    Sandra Hartnett

    Head of Davis Facilitation

    Sandra is proudly neurodivergent. She completed a Davis programme in mid-life, which was transformational and inspired her to bring this beautiful work to the world.

    She came to understand that she thinks differently, and she became very excited about the possibilities before her.

    Outside of Davis facilitation work, Sandra has extensive experience working in an NGO with people with mental health struggles. This has strongly influenced her passion and knowledge when working with neurodiversity, and recognition of the myriad of difficulties that can coincide living within a neurotypical world.


    Her passion is for people to securely imagine a sense of belonging, to know they can effortlessly contribute to their own and others lives. To participate in everything that thrills them; seeing the opportunities, taking action, and making connections and decisions with ease.
