Help with Technology

If you have sight and hearing loss, you might find that using technology is really helpful. From shopping and reading to catching up with friends and finding information, the world is more accessible than ever, thanks to advances in technology.

Our technology support service teaches you to make the most of technology to help you be as independent as possible. From magnification to voice recognition, we can show you how to make the most of the gadgets you’ve already got or how to use specialist accessibility software. Find out more.

We’ve also got some useful help sheets on a range of topics below.
