Our Brief
Arriva was looking for a solution to help people who have dyslexia, dyspraxia, visual impairments or who don’t speak English as a first language, overcome challenges they may have faced navigating the Arriva website.
Our Solution
Recite Me was added to Arriva’s website to make it accessible. Users can now click the ‘accessibility and audio’ tab, then they can change font or font size, the colour themes of the web page, the language displayed and access a full dictionary and thesaurus. For people with dyslexia and low level visual impairments, Recite Me provides a back, play and forward option, so the text can be spoken aloud to the user.
