About us
Based in Surrey, we have worked closely with health professionals to develop our communication books. We employ a team of people with learning disabilities to help develop our designs. We also liaise closely with many voluntary organisations supporting people with a wide range of communication needs. The original Hospital Communication book was launched in 2005 and in 2013 version
3 was launched.
Over 20,000 of our communication books have been used by paramedics and hospital staff across the UK, and as far away as Australia.
