Requesting Easy Read

Requesting Easy Read

Why it matters
Easy read helps people who find written information hard to understand. It’s also a legal requirement.


What we want
• colleagues to understand easy read
• many to know how to create it 
• many to feel confident in doing it


What we offer

• advice 
• monthly ‘introduction to easy read’ sessions
• Photosymbols access
• ongoing support and checking service for those producing their own easy read
• plain English support 


When you request work

Send us:
• a short, clear summary for us to work from (read our guidance for this here)
• the original document 
• any specific images or branding required (PNG)


Your role

• agree the summary first
• plan how people will access your document 
• deadlines - allow enough time for your easy read to be completed. Producing easy read is a time consuming 
process
• documents are completed within 20 working days after the summary version is agreed. For urgent cases, please contact me so we can look at options
