Customer testimonials
Swanston Farm & Brasserie have been offering Braille menus printed by our Scottish Braille Press since 2022, and their team have even learned the basics of Braille themselves to help customers find their way around the menu. Small changes like this make a real difference to blind and partially sighted customers. "Our latest Braille Menus have arrived! Transcribed and printed by Sight Scotland’s enterprise the Scottish Braille Press, our braille menus have been a constant feature in our Brasserie since 2022 and offer blind and partially sighted customers the independence to read and choose from our menu (we also have a large print menu which our team can provide and an audio menu available on our website. Once our menus arrive, our marketing manager marks each section of the menu with pen, (this has meant learning the basics of the braille alphabet!) so our staff can quickly find the right page if any customer is looking for something in particular.
We have worked with The Scottish Braille Press for 19 years, enabling us to mail members who require alternative format communications. Their professionalism and diligence have always ensured this important service is delivered to our members efficiently. They are a great organisation to work with.
Thank you SO much! I really appreciate your help. I'm very excited to be able to offer the Harry Potter Books in Braille to our students who want to read it. It was a particular request and I am thankful to your company for making this possible.
Scottish Braille Press is a leading local provider of accessible media, transcribing documents for a wide range of our clients into braille, large print and audio formats. As we are unable to provide these transcriptions in-house, SBP provides us with an invaluable service to support our visually impaired clients and in doing so they enable us to meet our equality obligations under the relevant legislation. Our working experience with SBP has always been a good one as they provide high quality products with fast turnaround time. They have also provided us with advice on alternative formats. We have visited their facility and found it to be a highly professional, secure and confidential environment with skilled workforce with experience of the alternative format and commercial print sectors. We were also very impressed with the fact that SBP is an employer that supports people with disabilities.
