How do they help?
Ace Centre is a charity dedicated to empowering individuals with communication disabilities. They provide specialised support, including assistive technology (AT) and therapy, to enable people to communicate, connect, and lead more fulfilling lives. Ace Centre breaks down communication barriers and fosters inclusivity and accessibility.
Ace Centre’s approach with research, funding, and advice is a real game-changer. They dig deep to understand needs, offer expert advice, and create personalised solutions for those with communication disabilities. Their services also include practical solutions to help in communication such as alphabet and symbol charts, AAC including their Text Aloud app and customisable digital pragmatic organisation dynamic displays (PODD).
Why is this important? People with communication disabilities often experience feelings of isolation and encounter obstacles in society. Ace Centre help those people gain access to the tools they need to communicate, connect with others, and regain their independence. They are also working to fight the stigma associated with these disabilities. 34
