What is Easy Read?
Easy Read is a way of presenting information that makes it simple and easy to understand. It uses plain language, short sentences, clear layout, and supportive images or symbols to help people understand the meaning more easily.
Easy Read is important because some people, including those with learning difficulties, neurodivergence, or those for whom English is not their first language, may find information harder to read or understand. Providing information in an Easy Read format helps ensure that everyone can access important information, make informed decisions, and participate fully in society.
