Easy Read accessible communications

Ensures public information is accessible to everyone.

CDS can translate even the most complex information into easy-to-read and easy-to-understand language, and help you satisfy all your accessibility duties.

We can help you deliver messaging in a straightforward accessible format, including large print versions, translation to any language (including Braille) and presentation of information on audio disc.

CDS has developed two Easy-Read styles. A style for people with learning disabilities, presenting key points in simple language supported by colourful images for people to read alone or with a helper; and a low-literacy style presenting information in clear, easy-to-understand words supported by bespoke illustrations. Both styles can be quickly and simply transformed into accessible PDFs for website use.
