Engagement isn’t just about sharing information, it’s about people understanding it, connecting with it, and knowing what to do next.
Easy Read helps turn information into something people actually engage with.

Assumptions are made about disabled people all the time.
About whether they can drive, be in a relationship, or live alone.
But disabled people aren't all the same. Let’s get to know people as individuals and let them decide what they can do.

Disability is diverse and our images should show that. Often, public info only shows people in wheelchairs to represent disability. But disability can be physical, sensory, cognitive or hidden. Inclusive images help everyone feel seen. #DisabilityInclusion #EasyRead #Diversity

As well as donations and fundraising, there are lots of ways that you can support us. Sharing our messages to raise awareness of our services could really help someone who needs it, particularly over the winter period 👉 thecellartrust.org

We welcome the Change NHS programme.
The NHS is meant to be accessible to all, but it currently is not. That can change, so today we encourage @NHSEngland to make sure the consultation process is fully accessible in British Sign Language!

I dream of the day that more #PCNs catch on... not just for the sake of investment in the #VCSE but as a way to innovate, transform, integrate, reach and engage, tackle health inequalities, improve outcomes and move £ & power as close to communities as possible.
Although as a single pcn @AwcModality has invested up to £3m into local VCS in last 4 yrs - but we can discuss that more at #locality24 @localitynews 💰💰💰💪💪💪👏👏👏🙏
