## Notice

Health Education England (HEE) National Learning Disabilities and Autism Programme is co-producing all projects and programmes with people with learning disabilities and autistic people. Co-production will mean people that people with learning disabilities and autistic people are part of the decision-making process at every stage, and our project and programme outputs will have a greater impact. To achieve this HEE requires the production of a variety of accessible information. One type of accessible information we are required to produce is Easy Read, and we wish to procure a supplier to work with HEE to translate plain English documents into Easy Read format.
