Clients Review

Freedom Communications Ltd.

Accessible websites allow different people to obtain information from the Internet. As a web production company, we have invited Hong Kong Blind Union to conduct a comprehensive accessibility test for our website to ensure that the web design meets international standards. During the cooperation, Blind Union provided professional consultation service. We hope to promote social integration by constructing accessible web pages for our clients.

Art Ambassador of Hong Kong Arts Center / Ms. Fong

I am satisfied with the braille book that was made by your department. The staff from your organization was committed to great service. She was very humble and friendly. She was always there when I have any enquiries about equipment and layout design. She provided professional advice about what is the best way to support visually impaired readers. Last but not least, we appreciate the effort and efficiency in completing the work even we did not offer lots of time.

Non-profit Organisation / Ms. Cheung

In order to make sure our website is accessible to all people including the people with disabilities, we invited the HK Blind Union to conduct a comprehensive accessibility test for the website. They carried out the assessment in a professional manner and offer a detailed improvement plan, and the staff followed up closely during the process.

We started our first cooperation on audio description with Hong Kong Blind Union. To produce the online materials, staff from Union provides professional advice to fit the needs of the blind and also well communicate with both parties. After the production, my team and I enhance the understanding of audio description.
