Richard Wood

We were very sad to hear of the death of Richard Wood last month. Richard played an important part at Working with Words when he trained here from 2002 - 2006. He was also one of the lead actors in our Count Us In video, CD and booklet. We send our condolences to his family and friends.


Working with Words is 10 years old!

Working with Words became a Company in May 1998. Since then, we have trained 130 people with learning disabilities, have helped make information easy for many companies, Councils, Government departments and other organisations.

We will be holding a celebration at Charlton House on Wednesday, 3rd September, you will be getting an invitation to come and join us, so put the date in your diary now.

We are looking for sponsorship to help pay for the day, so if you know anyone who can help, ask them to get in touch with us.
