accessaudit.co.uk: Welsh & English Tactile Signs at unbelievable prices

Mike Leahy has been an Access Consultant since 2002 and during that time has seen many innovations to help disabled people. One that you'll have seen around mainly public places are tactile signs.

The Braille alphabet used in our signs. Original advice on the special Welsh letters (not shown here) was given by Royal National Institute for the Blind

All tactile signs comply with legislation and best practice. All, unless otherwise stated are bi-lingual in Welsh & English. All have raised text and symbol (where applicable) and bi-lingual Braille.

All signs are in blue, unless otherwise stated, and have contrasting white text, symbols and border so that they are easy to identify.There is an indent raised white arrow head marking at the beginning of the Braille so that it can be easily identified. All signs are made of a durable long-life plastic, vacuum formed to be usef both indoors and outside. They come with a self-adhesive peel-off backing sitable for most surfaces but can be screwed for added security.
Signs should all be located at a standard height of 1750mm from floor level so as to be easily distinguished and at a suitable height for both tall people and wheelchair users.

In contradiction to common belief over 97% of people who are registered blind can recognise tactile signs from a distance but may not be able to read them. Many have blurred vision which will allow them to identify an outline and colour so that they need to know where they should be looking.

There are many other access issues associated with sight impairment and the Access Audit Co can help and advise you on overcoming this. Call 07964827959 for a realistic and pragmatic approach.
