During 2015 The Scottish Accessible Information Forum (SAIF) and the Scottish Disability Equality Forum (SDEF) formed a Consortium to develop an Inclusive Communication Hub for Scotland. The Consortium contributed with their wealth of knowledge and expertise in the development of this Hub.

The Scottish Government are now supporting SDEF, SAIF and Sense Scotland to take forward the development of this Hub during 2016.

The Inclusive Communication Hub will be the first of its kind for Scotland. This will be an easy to use online tool, for all who wish to be more inclusive with the information they deliver.

Inclusive Communication is, quite simply, communication that is inclusive. It is an approach to communication which enables as many people as possible to access and engage with organisations.

The purpose of the Inclusive Communication Hub will be to provide a ‘one stop shop’ for information on Inclusive Communication in Scotland.

A lot of good work has been done already by many organisations throughout Scotland but finding this information can be difficult. The aim of the Hub would be to have a central place for all this information to be kept or signposted to.

An Advisory Panel is now being established to recognise the passion and long term commitment of individuals and groups currently working to improve Inclusive Communications in Scotland.

If you are interested in being a member on the Advisory Panel, please contact: Morven Brooks, Communications Manager, Scottish Disability Equality Forum, Tel: 01259 272063, Email: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

Your feedback is vital in the development of this Hub, to ensure that everyone can find the information they need to support those needing communication support.
