If you click on the image to enlarge it you will be able to see that Dore is running an advert to be displayed when people search for the BDA, that appears at first glance, to be from the BDA. There is no need for Dore to include the words British Dylexia Association in that advert over than to mislead the reader. Chris Peter,

That is what search engines do. It isn't dishonest, it isn't DORE/ DDAT's fault, it is the nature of searches. DORE/DDAT is not dishonest in this respect.
