Speech-enabled

The Shelter London and Anova websites are speech-enabled using BrowseAloud. BrowseAloud is a suite of products that provides reading support on websites. BrowseAloud reads website content out loud, highlighting each word as it is spoken in a high quality, human-sounding voice.

Click on the “BrowseAloud” icon in the top navigation of this website to have content read to you. Click on the print enlarger icons to read the documents in a larger font size.

Other features of BrowseAloud include dual-colour highlighting, text magnification, talking dictionary, talking translator, MP3 maker, and screen masking.

Who BrowseAloud Helps?

BrowseAloud helps any website visitor who requires online reading support or simply wishes to listen to the information on this website instead of reading it. BrowseAloud is particularly useful for those with print disabilities such as dyslexia or mild visual impairments and those with English or French as a second language.
