For many sight impaired people, being able to access information easily is a key element to social inclusion and vital to ensuring they can manage their affairs independently and with confidence. Vision Support Trading was established in 2001 to provide a fast, cost-effective and accurate transcription service that would enable companies to support its blind and sight impaired customers with alternative format materials of the highest quality.
VST operates as a social enterprise alongside our parent charity Vision Support. Through this relationship and as original members of the UKAAF (United Kingdom Association of Alternative Formats), we are able to better understand the needs of sight impaired people, including the fact that the quality of materials matters, and are proud to provide the best possible alternative format solutions. All profits from our commercial activities are gift-aided to the charity so that blind and visually impaired people can be supported as effectively as possible in the community.
