Easy read training

Make your content clear and inclusive

Easy read information can help you to reach, include and empower more people.

Our easy read training will help you to produce best-practice easy read content that works for the audience.

We also offer Clear Communication training that covers the essentials of easy read and plain English in one course.

Our training is available online or in-person, to suit your needs.

Why our easy read training?

Learn from specialists 

We have supported many organisations to make their information more inclusive, including:

• government departments

• political parties

• charities

• local authorities and more

We have transformed a huge range of content into easy read, such as:

• political party manifestos

• government strategies

• human rights reports

• letters about benefits

• health information leaflets

We have also contributed to UK easy read guidance and European easy read guidance.

Our expertise comes from working closely with people with a learning disability to inform our work.

Learn the essential techniques

The training covers the essential techniques for producing high-quality easy read content.

You will learn about:

• What works and what doesn’t work with easy read

• Making your content more meaningful and engaging
