We offer a range of business services to help your business to grow and discover new opportunities through braille

There are around two million people in the UK with significant sight loss, and millions more who struggle with standard print and signage. Braille is a form of accessible communication which can help your business reach a wider audience and be more inclusive.

Our services include:

Braille transcription

RNIB is one of the UK’s leading braille transcribers. We offer cost-effective and efficient braille transcription, which adheres to the guidelines set by UK Association for Accessible Formats (UKAAF).

We provide cost effective, scalable solutions to process all your customer documents to the right quality and security standard in the most demanding of timeframes.

We work to the highest standard of quality and certifications including Cyber Essentials Plus and ISO/IEC 27001:2013 Information Security.

Our specialist team takes your documents and transforms them into braille that’s easy for your customers to read independently.

We transcribe a wide range of documents into braille and other accessible formats such as large print and audio. For example, we regularly transcribe everything from bills and menus to information letters, bank statements, and much more.
