Publications

VAN aims to use Plain English in all its publications. This approach keeps jargon to a minimum and uses simple, friendly language, spelling out acronyms and changing arts and policy terminology into simple terms where possible. For more information on Plain English see The Plain English Campaign: www.plainenglish.co.uk

VAN also produces its publications on environmentally friendly paper.
