Experts in Visual Impairment

Dolphin Guide reads

All of our clients are visually impaired.  In fact so are lots of our team.  So our staff won’t ask your loved one to read the small serial number or the print manual.  When we need more support information than their sight allows, we can, with consent, remote onto their computer to resolve any issues. All of our resources are available in alternative formats including large print, Braille and audio. 

Graphic of 4 keys - up, down, enter and escapeIt Really is Simple, Honest!

Technology can be daunting, especially with a visual impairment, but Guide is no ordinary computer! Guide hides all the usual Windows and buttons, presenting every task as a simple numbered list and asking basic questions each step of the way. Guide can largely be operated with just 4 keys. For those customers who want to improve their keyboard skills, Guide's typing tutor can work wonders. Failing that, Guide allows you to record voice memos as MP3 to send by email.

We’re here to Help when You’re Not

When you're new to computers, there's bound to be lots of questions and reassurance required.  So if you're not available, we probably are.  If your client or loved one has a question about using Guide or just needs a little extra support, our dedicated product support team are available by phone or email. Don't forget we also offer telephone training and training in the home.
