About the Partners:
  • Scope Australia produces best-practice Easy English communications to help 44% of Australians with low English literacy understand everyday information. 
  • Thriving Communities Partnership (TCP) is a not-for-profit organisation that brings business and people with lived experience together to ensure everyone has fair access to essential services in Australia.

Upon completion the Easy English resources will be promoted far and wide by the participating organisations. They will also be added to the TCP Online Knowledge Centre for easy access.
