This looks absolutely brilliant.

Every year, the top under-18 braille readers and writers from across the English-speaking world gather in Los Angeles to compete in the Braille Challenge. For one weekend, blind and low-vision kids form friendships, face old rivals, and pursue the rare chance to be recognised for their skills.

Brailled It is a new documentary filmed by the kids. With audio description and accessibility at its core, the film shifts authorship to the community on screen, revealing a world defined not by limitation, but by mastery, ambition, and the transformative power of literacy.

In many ways, everyday is World Sight Day at Sight and Sound Technology.

We’re lucky enough to travel around the country, bringing life-changing technologies to people with low or no vision.

But today offers a good opportunity to take a wider view.

Nearly everyone on the planet will experience an eye health issue in their lifetime, yet over a billion people lack access to the treatments they need.

World Sight Day is an annual reminder to and an opportunity to join millions of people globally in celebrating the value of vision.

Book an eye test. Look after your sight. Make the most of it, in whatever form it comes.

And, whether you have low or no vision, we’d be delighted to help you keep doing the things that bring you joy.

People with dyslexia often excel at creative, spatial, and big-picture thinking, problem-solving, complex patterns, entrepreneurship and more…

There’s evidence everywhere, especially in some of the most successful people in the world. From Sir Richard Branson, to Whoopi Goldberg, to Jamie Oliver, to (probably) Albert Einstein.

Having said that, people often hide their dyslexia and don’t want their employers to know about it.

Education can also be frustrating. But dyslexic people can thrive there too, with a culture of acceptance and support.

Assistive technology is a key part of that.

Get in touch to find out how our technologies help people with dyslexia.
