We are a membership organisation which supports blind and partially sighted people to use technology at home, at work and in education.
The organisation has over 700 members from across the UK and internationally, including some who are just starting out with technology and others who are leading experts in the use of assistive and accessible technology. We also welcome professionals and family members as Associate Members.
It is free to join so there has never been a better time to get involved, learn more about technology and have a say in the future of the organisation.
