Start with an “Easy-to-Understand Summary”
The Plain English Summary is often your project’s first impression.
We call it an Easy-to- Understand Summary, because it should speak to everyone, not just professionals.
Not sure where to start?

We can help you rewrite and adapt your summary using:
● Plain language principles
● Readability scoring tools
● Real feedback from people with lived experience
● Supportive visuals and accessibility tools (like CardMedic)
How We Help You
We work closely with you to review and improve your materials.
This includes:
● Removing jargon and complex phrasing
● Adapting for different languages, literacy levels, and communication needs
● Using visuals, cultural context, and lived experience insight
● Providing advice on using interpreters or inclusive digital tools
Final Thought: Simplicity Builds Trust
Clear communication isn’t “dumbing down”—it’s opening up.
It’s what helps people:
● Feel welcomed into the research process
● Share their experiences and knowledge
● Trust the work and decisions being made
