The infographic was created as a part of the “10 Things” programme in which My Life My Choice, an award winning Oxford charity run by and for people with learning disabilities is going to commit to doing 10 things in 2013 to improve the health of the learning disabled. The project will work closely with NHS to train hospital staff in caring for people with learning disabilities.
The infographic addresses the issue of low awareness of health problems among people with learning disabilities and stresses the importance of ensuring regular health checks for those with learning disabilities.
The design of the infographic combined large text, simple illustrations and the colour plate from the My Life My Choice logo in order project a clear brand identity of the charity.
Dan Harris, Marketing Coordinator in My Life My Choice said:
“At the start of a big project, with really ambitious aims to change the lives of people with learning disabilities in Oxfordshire it’s so reassuring to work with Obergine to create an infographic that’s not just locally significant but nationally important. Infographics are a beautiful format for communicating powerful information, and their accessibility across diverse communities mean will continue to return to them for our campaigns”
My Life My Choice is a user-led, self help charity for people with learning disabilities. It focuses on raising levels of self-esteem, confidence and quality of life for people with learning disabilities; it does this by providing volunteering, training, employment and social opportunities for over 300 people.
