Easy Read Factsheets
Making our public information easier to read and understand.
We will be providing most of our factsheets in easy read format (including pictures) so they are accessible to people who may have difficulty understanding our standard factsheets. The pictures are in colour but there is a black and white version of each factsheet available if you are unable to print colour copies.
The most current versions of some of our factsheets are available on this webpage in easy read format and we are more than happy for these factsheets to be photocopied and distributed freely, but please ensure that you always use the most up-to-date copy. More factsheets will be added shortly.
If you require a version of any factsheet in another format or language please contact:
