The first thing that people say is:
"What is A.T.?"
Well, there are many ways to answer that question:
You could say; "It stands for Assistive Technology"
that is, technology that assists you in some way.
If you have a disability, you may need assistance with any number of things
From someone who needs an easier way to open a door to someone who can only move their eyes and needs a more comprehensive solution.
We like to sum up AT as: "Returning independence through technology".
Because everyone's needs are different, the assistance they require is also different
AT can help in many areas, the main ones are ACE
Access,… Communication,.. & Entertainment
Some people find it difficult or impossible to get to, and answer the door
Imagine being confined to the chair in your living room, and the doorbell rings,
What would you do? - AT has solutions for that.
Some people have limited dexterity, so using small buttons on telephones and computers can be a challenge
or they might not be able to speak.
Now imagine you need to contact a family member.
What would you do? - AT has solutions for that.
Imagine you are confined to your bed, but at least you have the television on
Then, that programme you really want to watch is on the other channel or you now want to listen to some music.
You can't reach, or are unable to operate the remotes
What would you do? - AT has solutions for that too.

You have no option but to become hotter and hotter.
We can install an AT device where you can open your windows without any effort or difficulty, without having to move from your seat.
If you have difficulty getting up and answering the door, you may feel that you need to leave it unlocked, just in case!
Our AT solution will allow you to first see and talk to the person at the door, and then,
if you want it to, unlock and open the door for you. A much more secure option.
If you have difficulty operating a telephone. You may therefore be unable to chat with family and friends, or call anyone in an emergency.
