The Helen O’Grady Academy has teamed up with St Edwards College in support of the Eminence Arts and Education’s Right-To-Write initiative, to mark Global Handwriting Awareness Day on January 23.  

This initiative was launched by Managing Director Jaishree Chhabrani of Eminence Arts and Education in India to encourage writing skills across the globe.

“No matter how technologically advanced we are, the importance of good writing skills must not be allowed to die down. No Human Beings can be handicapped of handwriting skills,” she said.   Eminence is all set to hit a global record as it reaches out to every corner of the globe with their vision of promoting handwriting skills.
