This page in sign language
For blind and low-vision people. International Sign for the global site; your national sign language on your country page. Signed by a Deaf creator, credited by name.
Why it matters
Much information is print.
In plain words
A medicine label, a food package, a menu, a notice and a street sign are all print. A person who cannot see print needs it read aloud. A person with low vision needs it large and clear.
Print can be public, and still not be yours.
Point your phone at a place or a sign. It can come three ways: in sign language, as audio, or in easy words. You choose.

What you can do
Hear it where you are.
Written
Point at a label, a menu or a leaflet. Hear it read aloud, in your language.
Here
Stories and information about where you are, in audio.
Describe
If you can describe what you see or know, you can make a place or a package easier for others to follow. Your name is on it.
Written: you point your phone camera at the words on a letter, notice or sign. If a signed version exists, it opens. If it does not, you can ask for one.

access.place is an open platform. Any language works when someone provides the content in it: the organisation or brand, a paid interpreter, or the community.

A label, read aloud
A short demonstration is being made. It shows a plain package with a label we write, read aloud in plain words and in another language. The video has an audio description.
This website
Read it large. Read it clear. Hear it.
The Display button at the top of every page has a high-contrast theme and three text sizes. The Listen button reads the page aloud, and you choose the voice and the speed. How this site is tested.
We hold nothing about you.
If you are watching, access.place holds nothing about you. Apps identify themselves with a key, not you, and what an app asked for, such as your coordinates or the text you photographed, is never written down.

If you are DeafBlind
We are learning. Tell us what works.
People who are DeafBlind use touch, braille and tactile sign language. We are not yet sure what we can offer you. We would like to build it with you. Tell us what works and what does not.
