Software Adaptations

This section of the shop contains the software that we’ve been able to get discounts on or which is less well known and we feel would be of use to the disabled community.

We don't sell all adaptive software which is currently available on the market - if you are looking for something that is not listed and would like advice, please get in touch via shop@aidis.org or ring on 0845 120 3719.

Please also bear in mind the Free Software which has been included within the Software Adaptations section of the website, as some of these software titles are FREE. It's not always going to be the right option, but it's worth trying it out to get an idea of what a particular kind of software can do and might be used for.
