The ERT is a social enterprise. Our business uses its funds to make a social impact and improve the lives of people with disability and neurodivergence.
September is packed with Easy Read workshops, social impact events, and disability inclusion conferences—come say hi in Melbourne!
We had such a great time attending the SECNA (Social Enterprise Council of NSW & ACT) Social Enterprise Festival 2025 . We were kept busy meeting new people and telling them all about Easy Read including our huge library of inclusive images. We spoke to a lot of people who were new to Easy Read, who expressed shock when learning that 44% of Australians read at primary school level or below! We were able to demonstrate the difference a translated Easy Read document makes with our before and after samples. We welcome those who subscribed to our mini showcase where we share what goes on behind the scenes at ERT and showcase all the resources our members have access to. We also had lots of interest in our Introduction to Easy Read Workshop . It was a great warm up for our stall at the National Disability Summit , 18 and 19 September. Be sure to come and say Hi if you’re attending! - Adriana Pamplin
