  • The Jargon Busters Co-production Group decided to work on a second project. The aim of this new project was to look at getting more people with learning disabilities to join the Devon Learning Disability Partnership Board (LDPB). The group planned the contents, wrote the script and recorded their voices. It was premiered at the LDPB on February 24th 2025.

  • The Jargon Busters were asked to think about supporting council officers to make SEND information easier to understand. SEND is short for Special Educational Needs and Disabilities. The group felt that as the parents of SEND children and young people can also have needs they would like to look at reasonable adjustments first.
