Make it easier to read
6 tips for a clearer list.
One item per line
Don’t squeeze two things onto a line. Short lists you can read are better than long lists you can’t.
Write in capitals, if that’s easier
Block capitals are often quicker to read at a glance, especially when you’re walking.
Group by aisle
Fruit and veg together, then dairy, then cupboard. You’ll walk the shop once and tick as you go.
Write it in good light
Writing your list at a bright window or under a lamp helps you check it’s clear before you leave the house.
Keep it at eye level
A list at the right height means you don’t have to bend or hold it. That’s what a Twistaroo does on the trolley.
Made to fit
Write big. Read it at a glance.
The A4 Twistaroo holds this list at eye level on the trolley, so you can read it without holding it, and keep both hands on the handle. The clear strip at the top means the clip never covers a line.
Questions
Large print list FAQs.
Is the large print list free?
Yes. Download it, print it and share it. No sign-up.
What size is it?
A4, one list per sheet, with big tick boxes and generous space between the lines. There’s a clear strip at the top so a clipboard’s clip never covers anything.
Is there an A5 version?
Yes. The A5 version prints two on a sheet of A4. Cut along the dotted line.
Which clipboard suits large writing?
The A4 clipboard gives you the most room, and the A4 printable is made to fit it.
