Easy Read pages

What is easy read?

An easy read document is a simple and clear piece of writing that is easy for most people to understand. It uses plain language, short sentences, and avoids complicated words. The short sentences are matched with simple images or illustrations.

Why do we need easy read?

These type of documents are important because they ensure information is accessible to a wide audience, including those with learning disabilities or limited literacy skills. Easy read documents help people make informed decisions and understand important information without confusion.

The 50 Challenge

Roll up your sleeves and take part in The 50 Challenge to raise funds for our Jubilee year. You could eat 50 grapes in 50 seconds or create a 50-hour-long playlist and nominate 50 people to donate.
Power Cuppas

We are set to host 50 POWER CUPPAS in L’Arche Communities up and down the country. The idea is to get influential people to come, have tea, meet and hang out with people in L’Arche, who don’t often get to speak to power.

"The public aren't in large numbers voting for these issues. Politicians tend to respond a lot to where the public's focused so it's really incumbent upon civil society movements to speak up."
