When information is clear and easy to understand, people feel empowered.

They can:

✅Take part and feel like they are a part of the world around them.

✅Make choices based on facts.

✅Know what rights they have.

✅Learn new things and look for new chances.

Together with Values Into Action Scotland and Apt Scotland we're running an Easy Read training session as part of our project.

* It’s important to note that Easy Read doesn’t guarantee understanding—some people may need a different format, like video or audio—but it is a useful way to break down difficult information and make it more inclusive and accessible.
