ANTRIM, U.K. - July 2, 2013 - PRLog -- By choosing BrowseAloud, Cardiff Community Housing will be extending the reach of its website (www.ccha.org.uk) to 20% of the UK population that requires reading support. This includes the ageing population, those with print disabilities such as dyslexia, literacy difficulties, mild visual impairments or those who have English as a second language.

Providing homes in Cardiff for over 35 years, Cardiff Community Housing offers comprehensive services for a wide range of people, including single people, families, the elderly and those with physical disabilities and learning difficulties.

Linked to their vision to implement a new online performance management system, Cardiff Community Housing has chosen BrowseAloud to ensure that “information provision (including publications, website and other channels) is designed and distributed to reach all groups in the communities within which it operates”.

BrowseAloud reads all accessible website content aloud in a high quality, human sounding voice which can be altered to suit the individual’s specific needs. Additional features include dual-colour highlighting of text, text magnification, a talking dictionary, a talking translator, an MP3 maker and screen masking.

BrowseAloud provides instant high quality speech on all devices (Smartphones, Tablet, PC, Macs) at no extra cost to the website user.
