Consulting people

People with communication support needs come from all age groups, interest groups, and socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds.

If you are running an information gathering campaign or consultation exercise you will want to include as many people as possible. Therefore you should consider how to meet these needs.

You may want to target a group of people with communication support needs directly. By doing this, you can identify ways to make access to information and services easier from the start.

Organisations listed here have contacts with individuals with varied communication support needs who are keen to take part in decision-making and service development activities. The contact details of the link person are given. Discuss with them how to arrange this involvement so that it is meaningful for everyone.
