  • Loan bank - We will offer your organisation and your users access to a large bank of assistive technology
  • Assessments - Help with assessing the needs of your disabled service users and staff
  • Help and support - Both AbilityNet and your local community partner will be on hand to offer help and advice on any accessibility related matters throughout the project

As part of your organisation's involvement AbilityNet would need feedback on how many individuals you have helped through this project and where appropriate relevant case studies.
