The Learning Revolution Transformation Fund Screenreader.net has been awarded a generous grant by the Department for Business Innovation and Skills’ Transformation Fund. With this award we are able to offer 50 Learning Days – available free to local blind and partially-sighted people as well as the sighted working with them. We are seeking a positive response from organisations with an appropriate venue and the strong desire to include those with little or no sight within informal learning.

Everyone’s a winner Our free assistive technology is available to everyone, anywhere – children or adults, at school, college, work or home, or in the library. It can make it more affordable for your organisation to fully include blind and partially-sighted people, and to honour its Disability Discrimination Act obligations.

Screenreader.net has an innovative and userfriendly approach to the web and learning – by giving our Thunder talking software away for free!

We are also creating www.help4-me.co.uk, a website stuffed with tutorials so that those with little or no sight can be helped to access and use many websites – including yours.

About us Screenreader.net is a charity passionate about people with little or no sight benefiting from the talking computer – 21st Century Braille. Screenreader.net are distributors for Thunder, invented by Sensory Software. The founders of Screenreader.net are a blind couple with a big vision. They know at first hand the challenges of trying to access and use computers in schools, colleges, libraries and work – access that seeing people take for granted. They want to empower visuallyimpaired people around the world by making Thunder available to everyone – regardless of the ability to pay. “A brilliant resource for blind people.”
