Beyond Words is a charity that produces stories for people who find pictures easier to understand than words.

Our books were originally designed with adults with learning disabilities in mind, but over the past 25 years our readership has extended to children and people with a wide range of communication and literacy difficulties.

Books Beyond Words use pictures to tell stories that engage and empower, on themes such as love and relationships, health, death and dying, and crime. They are also a tool for professionals to use with people in many different teaching and counselling situations.

We work with self-advocates - people with learning disabilities and experts by experience - in every area of our work from book development to training.
