This booklet is an invaluable guide for anyone who wants to write in plain English. It's a bit like a dictionary or thesaurus, but gives plain English 'translations' for hundreds of complex or bureaucratic words and phrases. When you've developed a wide vocabulary it's difficult to keep your writing simple - yet if you don't, many readers will not bother to read what you've written.

Customised booklets
It is very easy for us to supply customised booklets to your own specification. This can be as simple as having your organisation's logo on the cover. Or you can use the booklet to get your own message across to customers or staff - perhaps a new customer care initiative, or a drive for clearer communication. So you may want your own introduction and even to add tips of your own that are specific to your business. Please ask us for more details. Booklets are also a great way to promote your business!
