Over the life time of the project we provided:

  • 310 staff and users were trained face to face and 25 over the internet
  • 33 Accessibility kits were provided to centres in the 33 London boroughs
  • 1269 individuals used  the online assessment tool, 42 users had internet supported assessments and face to face assessments and
  • 17 users had consultancy sessions a total of 1363 people.
“The RAPL project has really added to what we do, a lot of our users are silver surfers, especially this September’s enrolment. With the staff knowing about accessibility it has enhanced what we have to offer them. They often seem to have difficulty with their eyesight so adjusting the screen has been very useful.”
