Chrissie Maher

Chrissie Maher OBE (born 1938) co-founded Plain English Campaign, a company that promotes the clear use of English, particularly by businesses and official bodies.[1] Chrissie was inspired both by the need for democratic language (information that could be understood by adults of all educational levels) and plain language champions such as Sir Ernest Gowers and George Orwell.
