We have teamed up with the Huddleston Centre and VisionAbility to run a new project called The Readability Project.
The Readability project aims to:
– train people to understand easy read and create easy read translations.
– collect and collate photos to develop a local repository of images for use in translating local easy read documents.
– develop a kitemark for, and encourage organisations to sign up to the City and Hackney Learning Disability Charter.
We are currently registering Autistic and Learning Disabled individuals, and professionals from Voluntary and Community Sector Organisations who would like training in the use of Microsoft Icons and photos to create and develop easy read documents.
The training is due to start soon so if you are interested in learning how to produce easy read documents please email us to let us know now.
We will then be in touch with interested people to provide more information and the training dates.
Please contact us at info@stmarysgarden.org.uk to get involved.
