We assist people to use technology and specialist products for day-to-day activities, to overcome problems with reading and writing, or to develop essential job skills in order to find employment.

Today's technology can enable people who are blind or vision impaired to read and write printed material, keep a diary, telephone directory or household budget, and surf the Internet.

Assistive technology can provide independence in accessing information for vision impaired people of all ages. Computers can be adapted to be used by people with little or no vision, through the use of technology to magnify or speak screen information, or present it as Braille. Electronic print magnifiers and text-to-speech scanners can provide access to everything in print, from the telephone directory and the newspaper, to the gas or electricity bill.

Our expert technical staff provide advice and support to assist people who are blind or vision impaired, employers, or other organisations to select and install appropriate assistive technology. We maintain, repair and upgrade assistive technology equipment for use in the home or workplace.
