PhoneAbility

PhoneAbility is the independent UK focal point for telecommunications and the needs of disabled and elderly people.

It has acted as the UK Reference Group for the European Action COST 219 during the three stages of that project – each with the objective of achieving improved accessibility to electronic communications services and equipment for these users.

The group acts as a catalyst in this area by organising conferences and seminars on telecommunications and disability.
