The Communications Access Symbol is an initiative developed in partnership by charities and organisations that share a vision to improve the lives of people with communication difficulties. The disability access symbol scheme is led by the Royal College of Speech and Language Therapists and was coproduced with a number of stakeholders including the NNPCF.
A completely free training package is available to any individual or business that wishes to sign up to the symbol. Some businesses that have signed up to the symbol include various Job Centres, Universities, Banks and Buildings Societies, and some NHS trusts among many others!
We are delighted to say the NNPCF have recently been re-accredited, for the 2nd year, with a number of our Steering Group, Operational Support team and National Representatives completing the training.
We would encourage you to take a look at the scheme and sign up to the training. If you would like to mention it to your Local Authorities and ICS’s please feel free to do so, to encourage their sign up as well!
