Anglia Ruskin Transcription Centre

With over two million people in the UK with significant sight loss*, and many others with a requirement for accessible information, there is a growing need for businesses to provide fully transcribed materials to ensure equality based services.

As members of the UK Association for Accessible Formats (UKAAF) and registered under the BSI ISO 9001, 2008 quality standard, we take pride in delivering a high quality and competitively priced transcription service to the business, local government and education and charity sectors.
