Hi Folks

Looking over the feedback on  replace the phrase cognitive and
learning disabilities and mental health impairments.

I <https://docs.google.com/document/u/0/d/1k5rKcLzcOQTtNRckt06XSTp4k8GUSasORLHHg_9_MjM/edit>
would like to suggest the following:


1: The title is cognitive accessibility guidance

2: We have a sub title along the lines of :

Making content usable for people with  cognitive,  intellectual,
developmental, learning and specific learning disabilities,
neurodivergence and mental health impairments and temporary
impairments that affect cognitive function. ...  (We can agree on the
full subtitle later - let us just agree on the direction )

3. We explain who is included in both the abstract and the introduction

4. We replace the phrase people with learning and cognitive
disabilities in the document so that the intent is not changed, but it
is easier to read and follow. This would involve  using different
phrases depending on what fits. Included phrases are:


   - The phrase "cognitive accessibility guidance"* where it fits -
*with a pop up glossary item with what the phrase means and  a full
list of who is included
   - The phrase " Our user groups" - also with a pop up explaining who
is included
