In association with Digital Social Care, Skills for Care and VisionBridge.

This interactive webinar is the first in a series of 6 sessions which will explore the ever-evolving world of assistive technology. The Sight and Sound Technology team will guide you through real life scenarios focusing on individuals with a variety of conditions and specific requirements. As a group we will discuss the suggested solutions and examine how assistive technology can offer support and enable people with a disability in a range of social care settings to maintain their mobility, independence, pursue their hobbies and interests, connect with friends and carers and to operate more effectively in everyday life.

We will be concentrating on the following areas of technology;

• Mainstream technology – e.g. iPads, Android tablets
• Accessible smartphones and Apps
• Computer software – magnification and screen reading
• Mobility at home and outdoors
• Indoor and outdoor navigation
• Portable magnification
• Wearable technology
• Voice activated devices
• Text-to-speech
