📚 Celebrating International Literacy Day 2026 📚

This week, to celebrate International Literacy Day, the Laois Offaly Regional Literacy Coalition proudly launched the Laois Offaly Literacy Friendly Template.

The template was developed collaboratively by the Literacy Champions Group, led by the Sport 4 Empowerment and Communications Team in Laois Sports Partnership, in partnership with Library Services in Laois and Offaly.

Did you know that 1 in 5 adults in Ireland have unmet literacy needs, and 1 in 4 struggle with everyday numeracy tasks, such as working out a discount or dividing a bill?

Clear communication matters.

This practical template provides easy-to-follow guidance to help organisations adopt a literacy-friendly approach, making information more accessible and inclusive for everyone.
✅ Use plain language
✅ Improve document design and layout
✅ Make information easier to understand
✅ Help ensure no one is left behind

This September, we invite organisations, services and community groups to download the template and carry out a Literacy-Friendly Review of their service.

Small changes can make a big difference in helping people access, understand and engage with the information they need.

Together, let's create communities where everyone can read, understand and participate with confidence.

📥 Download the Laois Offaly Literacy Friendly Template today and take the first step towards making your service more literacy friendly. -https://loetb.ie/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/Laois-Offaly-Literacy-Friendly-Template-1.pdf
