Helping you deliver your message

We can provide information in the following formats:

  • audio - cassette, CD, CD-ROM, Daisy CD
  • braille
  • computer disk
  • large print
  • Moon
  • tactile diagrams

Our clients

Our clients include individuals, charities, businesses and government agencies. We work with people who:

  • are unable to access normal printed material because of a sight problem.
  • want to make their own material more widely accessible to clients, customers and staff.

Costs

Our service is free to individuals, but we do have a pricing system for organisations. Please contact us for details.

For braille, large print and Moon, it is helpful if you can provide the document in an electronic form (such as on disk or in an email). This makes the price lower and the turnaround time faster.

DAISY technology

DAISY is a CD based portable technology which provides a high level of rapid navigation and which can deliver information audibly and visually at the same time. It can be used at school or home and allows blind and partially sighted pupils to have access to the same materials as their sighted colleagues, at the same time. The technology has the advantage of being inclusive and can be used alongside sighted students.

Contact us

Please contact us for further information or to discuss your requirements. Our office is located off Dumbarton Road near Partick subway station (location map). There are good bus and train links.
