Young Scot

Young Scot is the national youth information and citizenship charity for 11 to 25-year-olds living in Scotland. In 2022, Young Scot implemented Recite Me technology on its main website after receiving feedback from young people across Scotland who requested inclusive tools and language support.

Our Brief

With a diversity and inclusion strategy to ensure Young Scot’s services for young people were accessible to all, whilst recognising the intersectional diversity of needs.

Our Solution

By incorporating the Recite Me toolbar across its website, Young Scot offers a customisable digital experience for all young people in Scotland. Users can choose from a selection of styling, language, and reading tools when applying for a Young Scot card, seeking career advice, and much more.

“We must normalise accessibility aids because they are exactly that, normal! As someone who uses a screen reader at times to help myself access websites while living with cognitive and neurological issues, I was delighted when I first saw the Recite Me tool pop up on the Young Scot site. I hope more organisations follow this lead and begin to implement embedded accessibility in their websites and services.”
