An impact report is a pivotal communications tool for any charity, making it vital that the agency commissioned with its delivery is more than just a safe pair of hands. Perhaps this explains why Connect – the Communication Disability Network selected IE as the right agency to oversee design and print of its all-important impact report 2007-08.

Connect work to promote effective services, new opportunities and a better quality of life for some of the 250,000 people living with Aphasia, a condition which occurs when the communication centres of the brain are damaged. It is usually caused by stroke, but can also be caused by brain haemorrhage, head injury or tumours. The last year has seen the charity experience significant change and notable success, in particular the innovative Access to Life in Cornwall project.

IE's award-winning design team have over a decade's experience in working alongside charitable organisations, leaving them ideally placed to deliver Connect an effective, compelling and informative impact report within tight timescales.

IE has built up considerable expertise of producing annual reports over its 14 year history. Similar recent commissions include an interactive CD-ROM-based report for UNISON West Midlands Region, and printed annual report for UCCF, a charity who work with university and college-level students.
