One of the skills which distinguish SRA's holistic approach to consulting is our understanding of the need to disseminate results or implications of results to the public and/or different stakeholders . To this end we include amongst our staff people with expertise not just in the written word but also in film, radio and graphic media. We are also very involved in the use of information and communication technology especially in relation to their use by poorer people.

We are especially interested in better techniques of dissemination and to this end have produced some interactive tool kits and good practice guidance for strategic approaches such as Techniques for Public Involvement using sets of cards for planning and The Transport Needs of Minority Ethnic and Faith Communities with separate topic sheets for different stakeholders and an accompanying video designed for staff training purposes.

We also use media especially video to allow user groups to express their service needs and concerns about the public realm.

SRA have recently supported the use of photography to record memories of transport and urban places.  We also have a unique collection of photographs specialising in social aspects of transport including the use of systems by diverse groups.  These are available or can be commissioned.
