“Equality is at the heart of everything GMB does, inside and outside the workplace. That’s why we’re proud that visitors to our website can customise the GMB web pages in a variety of ways that work best for them, using the Recite Me website accessibility toolbar. GMB is committed to making every workplace we organise as accessible and inclusive as possible – having the Recite Me website accessibility toolbar for members to access the information they need has brought us closer to our goal and ensured we are led by best practices. Vital Features such as being able to easily have documents read aloud or translated into a whole range of languages have been described by our members as ‘a game changer’ in terms of accessibility and inclusion.”

“I founded EdPlace because I was able to overcome my challenges of dyslexia in a traditional schooling system, principally because I was lucky enough to have amazing parental support. I wanted to use the huge advances in technology to foster this for many, not the lucky few. “Our integration with Recite Me is a great example of this as the toolbar ensures our platform is accessible to all. A seemingly small achievement like getting a score in a subject you thought you didn’t understand can boost confidence and help unlock a student’s huge potential. Thanks to Recite Me, we’re able to provide this experience and help each and every child succeed in their learning.”

With the implementation of Recite Me on our website we can reach a diverse range of people who can read and understand the information easily and inclusively on our website.”

In addition, we have adopted the accessibility toolbar on its intranet and jobs website to ensure that more people can access and modify the content in a way that makes it more useful and usable.
