“Computability” is the name given to an organisation working for
the disabled within the
Isle of Wight PC User Group.
Whilst there are some pages relating to Compuability within this web site, the
main web site, which is more up to date, can be found at www.cfd-iw.org.uk
Aims of COMPUTABILITY IW:
- To lend disabled people on the Isle of Wight suitable
computer equipment for a trial period of three months, with
teaching and technical back-up, to enable them to assess the
benefits of using a computer before committing money to a
possibly redundant purchase.
- To help disabled people sort out problems with existing
computer equipment.
- To promote awareness of the many ways that computer equipment
can help disabled people.
- Although the project cannot hope to fund individuals wishing
to buy equipment, it aims to give informed, impartial advice on
acquiring computer equipment -- in some cases second-hand -- and
will direct suitable disabled people to charities which are
equipped to help financially.
