Picture from The Book Club illustrated by Beth AultonWe empower people
through pictures
Our charity co-creates word-free picture stories for people with learning disabilities. Our Book Clubs are an inclusive way to enjoy these stories.
Every story we write is co-created with people with lived experience and trialled by people with learning disabilities.
Picture stories are accessible to everyone, whether or not you can read words. Our word-free books enable readers to tell their own stories using their own method of communication.
