Accessible information is easy to read.
Everyone
sees accessible information in different ways, when accessible is really in my
view where you just do not miss what you reading and it is staring you right
in the face, it is so clear. My advice is to save yourself as much hard work as
possible, whether writing for people with disabilities and other problems or
other people, if you know who you writing for is to ask them first. It’s not
always the case but in some situations, if the information is not clear enough for
people could be the answer to why there are no replies, why people may not turn up
for appointments, or many reasons people don’t get the response they may except
depending on the situation.
With IT,
the internet, the icons on word, etc,
whatever the right word is to choose,
there are so many different ways you can choose how to make your
information, which at one time wasn’t there other than say a paper, pen and an
old fashioned typewriter, which was still just about there when I was child,
Computer weren’t around as far as I’m aware. This is where there are different
types of fonts, styles, sizes of writing, etc. Such as bold, italics, underline,
size 18, comic san, Ariel, or FS Mencap etc.
Most
people feel as if they have been shouted at someone when people do a lot of
writing in blocked capital letters when it is not people’s intentions.
Most
people tend to like titles in bold and sub-headings underlined, instructions,
directions etc very often in bullet points, 123, ABC, etc, which tends to break
the information down and make it bitesize for most people.
