SPECIAL VOCABULARIES

A growing number of organisations have realised that they can construct their own core vocabularies and have them produced by Signalong. We are building a database of signs to make this even simpler. These can range from the very slim book produced for Lifecare NHS Trust to introduce GP surgery staff to the concept of visual communication, up to a very much more substantial book for Scope's Beaumont College. Some organisations with trained Signalong tutors on their staff have opted for special vocabularies as the basis of their training programmes.

There is a basic set-up cost, subject to v.a.t., of £150 for the first 200 sign diagrams, plus £75 per hundred or part hundred thereafter. The manuals will be priced according to their size, and will be roughly comparable to our own publications. They will also be subject to bulk order discounts.
