About Beyond Words Creative
At Beyond Words Creative, we believe that every child deserves to see themselves in a story, and to feel seen, valued, and celebrated in the world around them.
​
Founded by Jo, a children's author and inclusion advocate, our mission is simple but powerful:
​
To spark empathy, understanding and creativity through inclusive storytelling and accessible resources and to celebrate the settings who are already making inclusion a visible part of everyday life.

Our Story
Beyond Words Creative began with a simple idea:
​
What if the magic of a story could help children understand one another a little better?
Inspired by Jo’s non-verbal autistic son, our flagship book Harvey’s Silent Discovery celebrates the beauty and power of non-verbal communication — and opened the door to a new way of creating impact. What started as a story written for one child has grown into a movement helping children across the country see the world through more inclusive eyes.
As a parent, Jo understands the uncertainty families can feel — and how powerful it is when schools and early years settings embrace difference with confidence and compassion.
That’s why Beyond Words now offers more than just books. We provide:
-
Inclusive lesson plan packs designed to bring stories to life in classrooms
-
Creative teaching tools that support emotional regulation, communication, and SEN understanding
-
The Beyond Inclusion Recognition Programme, helping schools and early years settings reflect, grow, and showcase their inclusive practice
And we’re just getting started.
What We Offer
Inclusive Children's Books
Stories that centre neurodiverse and disabled characters to open up conversations about difference and acceptance.
​
​
​
Educational Resources
Curriculum aligned resources that support SEN inclusion, empathy, teamwork, and visual communication without adding to a teacher's workload.
Early Years & School Inclusive Recognition Programme
A badge of honour and recognition for settings to show they go Beyond the basics in prompting inclusion.
​
​​​​​​
Merchandise
A colourful empowering range that spreads the message of inclusion and celebrates the uniqueness of every mind.
​
​
Why We Do It
Because inclusion shouldn’t be an afterthought, it should be baked into every story, every classroom, every resource.
Plus, every download you make, every book you buy, helps us continue to offer free tools for families supporting children with hidden disabilities through our sister company Inclusive Ventures
We’re here to empower educators, uplift families, and remind every child that there’s magic in every mind.
