This talk was for the British HIV Association spring conference.

It was a small study lead by advocates at i-Base and was selected by the conference for an oral presentation (Abstract O_4).

The study calculated readability scores from nine ongoing studies and compared them to two community-produced examples.

The presentation was also awarded one of two prizes from BHIVA and Mediscript for the best oral or poster research on social science or community-based work.
