Yes, thank you, watching what yoursymbols are doing.
I think Photosymbols might be a good fit for you - we find them best for daily routine, hobbies, etc. Change does well on "issues" - things like health and wellbeing.

We primarily use PhotoSymbols and Change, as well as images we've commissioned. Just bought our first few from Inga Kramer. Different banks have different strengths, often depends on what sort of #EasyRead you're creating.

It was useful to share some of the challenges of Easy Read translation, and some solutions. We also talked about the future of the service, and some exciting plans for the coming months and years. (2/2)
