We will translate any information that is needed to be written in an accessible way for people with learning disabilities.

 

There are 2 different ways that we will make accessible information documents.

 

1 is called a straight translation.

This is when we change your words into Easy English.

 


2. Is called from scratch.

This is when we work with you from the beginning, before you have written your words.

 

 

We can also make audio CD’s of the document.

 

 

 

 

Straight Translation

 

To make a straight translation the client would send us the document.

 

 

 

We may also ask the client to send us photographs of the people or places that are mentioned in the document.

 

Or we can go and take photos

 

 

We would change the words and add the pictures.

 

The final check of the document is done by a group adults with learning disabilities.

 


After this is done the document will be sent to the client.


The client will read it for the final proof.

 

 

When the client says that it is OK then it will be finalised.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

From Scratch

 

To make a document from the beginning will take longer.

People with learning disabilities will need to work on the document from the beginning.

 


If you do not know any people with learning disabilities we can help you find some people who are local to you.

Or

You can choose to hire The Information Foyer’s team of people with learning disabilities.

We would work together.

 

We would talk about the document and what you want.

 

We will also make a plan about how to make the document.

 

We would decide about what information the client wants in the document.

 

We would decide about what words to use.

 

 

What pictures to use and how it looks.

 

In this process there doesn’t have to be a proof reading by people with learning disabilities as they were part of the work from the start.
