As New Zealand’s premier plain language consultancy, we believe in the social, ethical, and financial benefits that come from communicating in plain language. We help our clients to form better relationships with their own clients and stakeholders.
That’s why we’re a proud sponsor of the Plain English Awards. Supporting the Awards fits perfectly with our business values. (And it’s no coincidence that our CE Lynda Harris founded the Awards more than 15 years ago!)
We look forward to congratulating all the winners and finalists, and to working on a prize project with the winner of the award for Plain English Champion — Best Organisation. We also provide sponsorship in the form of Awards administration and project management.

What we do in a nutshell:
Investors like the Guardians of New Zealand Superannuation rely on high-quality disclosure and clear, easily comparable information from companies so that they can make good investment decisions.
We believe that environmental, social, and governance factors are material to long-term investment returns, and aim to integrate these factors into all aspects of our investment activities. Supporting the Award for Best Plain English Annual Report is a way for us to encourage improved disclosure from New Zealand companies on governance, risk, strategies and performance — both financial and non-financial.
