What is it?

This document provides a plain English user agreement template for use in Assistive Technology (AT) trials conducted by local authorities.

Why did we create it?

When local authorities trial or implement assistive technologies, they need to have a clear agreement between pilot participants and the council about what will be done. This template helps outline this information in an accessible format. This will make it easier for participants to understand what the trial entails and what they are agreeing to, and make it simpler for local authorities to pass on this information.

Who should use it

The template is intended for use by council staff involved in Assistive Technology projects. This may include an AT team, but will also have relevance to Information Governance Leads looking at the use of data as part of an AT trial.
