Design for Health Workshops

We will be running workshops and seminars to help with subjects related to effective communications. Whether you are a healthcare professional that has not had any experience in communications before or if you are a communications manager in an NHS trust we hope we will have something that will interest you.

Accessibility Formats:

The DDA means that you have a requirement to produce information about healthcare and social services in a format that is accessible to all, where it is reasonable, for you to provide it in that format.

Are you familiar with the different formats available? Are you worried these will cost too much and be too difficult to organise? Think again - we hope to make these formats and process a much more simple one, and make them more accessible to you!

The formats available are:

  • Braille
  • Translations
  • Large Format Print Versions
  • Audio

We will cover:

  • The importance of accessibility and the impact on your community.
  • The different formats of accessibility: Braille, Large Format Print, Audio, Translations.
  • The cost and timeframes for producing different versions.
  • Guidelines and further information.

Places are limited so please book early.
