🏆 Celebrating Braille Literacy, Achievement and Innovation! 📚

Sensory Solutions is proud to celebrate Filadelfia Secondary School (LSEN) from Soshanguve, Pretoria, the overall winners of the 2026 South African National Council for the Blind (SANCB) Braille Cup Competition!

The Sensory Solutions team had the pleasure of handing over a brand-new Perkins Braille Bloom to the school’s principal, Mr Temba and the winning team, in recognition of this outstanding achievement.

The revolutionary Perkins Braille Bloom connects a traditional Perkins Brailler to computers, tablets and mobile devices, converting Braille input into on-screen text in real time. By bridging traditional Braille literacy with digital technology, it opens up exciting opportunities for learning, communication and participation in an increasingly digital world.

The handover is especially meaningful during South Africa’s Eye Care Awareness Month, as we recognise the importance of accessibility, literacy and equal opportunities for blind and partially sighted learners.

At Sensory Solutions, we believe that access to the right assistive technology can help transform educational opportunities and empower learners to reach their full potential.

👏 Congratulations to Filadelfia Secondary School on this well-deserved achievement! We are delighted to contribute to your continued journey in Braille literacy and inclusive education.

Another excellent video from the National Council of and for Persons with Disabilities! 👏

In this video, Bhekani Ngcobo demonstrates how the six keys of a Perkins Brailler work together in different combinations to produce the letters of the alphabet and numbers. It's a fascinating, easy-to-follow introduction to how braille works through touch!

What a brilliant video by the National Council of and for Persons with Disabilities! 👏 It provides a clear, practical explanation of how a Perkins Brailler works and the important role it continues to play in braille literacy.

In this video, Bhekani Ngcobo demonstrates how he uses the Perkins Brailler to write and read Braille, bringing this essential technology to life.

Thank you for creating and sharing such a valuable resource!

Advancing Inclusion Through Knowledge, Innovation and Collaboration 🌍

Sensory Solutions was proud to be represented by Dr Ashley Subbiah at the 2nd ICEVI Africa Conference, held at Emperors Palace from 28 September to 1 October 2026.

Dr Subbiah contributed two presentations that explored different, yet interconnected, dimensions of inclusion for persons with visual impairment:

🔹 BRAILLE Forward: Developing a Dynamic Braille Ecosystem Framework to Advance Literacy, Innovation and Lifelong Inclusion in Africa

This presentation introduced the BRAILLE Forward Ecosystem Framework, a systems-based approach that views Braille literacy as a lifelong ecosystem involving learners, families, educators, rehabilitation professionals, institutions, governments, employers, disability organisations, Braille producers and assistive technology providers.

🔹 Beyond Getting There: Orientation, Mobility and the Design of Participation

This presentation examined how orientation and mobility extends beyond simply reaching a destination. The proposed Route–Environment–Participation framework highlights the importance of ensuring that the places people reach are also accessible, usable and conducive to meaningful participation in education, employment, social interaction and community life.

Together, these contributions reinforce an important principle: accessibility is not achieved through isolated interventions. It requires connected systems, accessible environments, appropriate technology, human capacity and sustained collaboration.

At Sensory Solutions, we remain committed to contributing to this broader ecosystem—working with organisations, institutions and communities to advance access, independence, participation and lifelong inclusion for persons with visual impairment.

We are proud to share knowledge, build partnerships and contribute to shaping more inclusive futures across Africa.

Advancing Accessible Publishing and Inclusive Learning Across Africa 🌍📚

Sensory Solutions was pleased to be a part of the launch of the DAISY Regional Network for Africa at Emperors Palace in Johannesburg on 28 September 2026.

Bringing together stakeholders from education, policy, publishing, libraries, technology and the disability sector, the event highlighted an important shared priority: ensuring that information, reading and learning are accessible to everyone.

The launch marks an exciting step towards strengthening accessible publishing capacity across Africa and building collaboration around the standards, technologies and practices needed to make digital and published information more inclusive.

For persons who are blind or partially sighted, access to information is not simply about having the right assistive technology—it also depends on whether the content itself has been designed and published accessibly.

As we look towards more inclusive education systems, accessible digital content and stronger collaboration across the accessibility ecosystem, initiatives such as the DAISY Regional Network for Africa have an important role to play.

Accessibility is not an afterthought. It is part of designing participation from the outset.
