In addition to Braille we also produce, in house
,
a comprehensive audio service and offer a free podcasting set-up
or free MP3 audio files for you to host on your website.
Our audio team has
in excess of 20 years experience of producing recordings for
visually impaired people, so we quickly spot mistakes and
inconsistencies in the text and never make mention of page
references. We produce CDs, cassette and memory stick versions,
as well podcasts for the internet. Did you know 1 in 3 adults in
the UK struggle to read?
Our senior producer has experience of producing and presenting
for radio, promos and news. He has regularly voiced for Marks &
Spencer, Barclays Bank, BP, Age UK, Bupa and many others
including PCTs and various local government organisations. He
also conceived and produced the first ever audio breast
self-examination guide for women.
We produce some unique services that enable people to listen to
information, when they can't read. These include phone apps that
talk,
.PDF pages that play audio (we can apply this to your existing
.PDFs) Talking Paper - pages that can produce audio once printed
and; (pioneered by us) QR:AudioCodes that work on menus, in
guides and instruction books, on equipment - they use real
voices, can include music and sound effects and their use is
only limited by your imagination.

Large Print
Many people (1 in 10 of the
population) have an illness that causes vision impairment or, a
specific eye disease (these are often degenerative)They need
large print usually because the field of vision is impaired, not
because they simply can't read smaller font any more. They may
not yet be registered as blind or sight impaired but do
require assistance with something as fundamental as
reading. The majority of elderly people also experience severe
difficulty with standard print and so would benefit from large
print.
The re-creation of all kinds of publications and documents in
large print - fully featured with images and retaining the
design essence of the originals is also an in-house service
we're proud of. You can find our work in many places as, in
addition to personal copies in this alternative format, we also
provide PDF copies for websites. We also design packaging for
our clients' audio, plus originate newsletters and leaflets as
required.
We are one of the few Braille producers in the UK to format dual
large print and Braille documents.
Large and standard print language translations - both looking substantially similar to the originals are also
available from us.
