Where our Easy Read images come from

About our images

We use images to make documents easier to understand. Our images come from two main sources.

All images are chosen to be clear, simple, and helpful for Easy Read documents.

Bonnington Symbol System

Many of our images come from the Bonnington Symbol System.

What is the Bonnington Symbol System ?

The Bonnington Symbol System is a collection of Easy Read images. These images help people with learning disabilities understand information better.

Who created it ?

The Bonnington Symbol System was created by Tom Orr and Edinburgh Council.

Edinburgh Council made these symbols free for everyone to use. This helps organisations create accessible documents.
