Sakkie Blom

โ€œI wanted express my sincere thanks to your contributions as a guest speaker at our Disability Awareness Campaign. Your presentation was not only engaging and informative but also thought-provoking and inspiring. Your ability to connect with the students and bring subject matter to life was truly remarkable. Your contribution made a significant impact on the success of the event, and we are grateful for your contributions.โ€

M Sivhada

โ€œI am so happy now! I invested in a Topaz 22โ€ screen desk magnifier. Now I have a new lease in life! I am truly thrilled with my new toy!โ€

Mrs. Van der Merwe

โ€œWhat an awesome informative session we had. We were warmly accepted, guided, trained and provided with all the necessary support to accommodate learners displaying with low vision. The learner received spiritual counselling and his self-esteem was boosted. The OT and principal gained more skills and will be sharing with other teachers. TODAY WAS A BLESSED DAY. Do not stop doing good to others.โ€

Client from Amajuba District in KZN

โ€œI have been a slave to HIMS products for some years now and am biased. I used the BrailleSense Polaris for some years until the 6 became available in the second half of last year. The South African supplier Sensory Solutions offered it to me at a price I just could not resist, so I have had the pleasure and privilege of enjoying one for almost a year. A satisfied user waiting for the next one at a special price of course!โ€

Zak Yacoob

Retired Judge of The Constitutional Court Of South Africa

โ€œI use the Focus 40 Blue braille display daily in my work as a software developer and it meets all the criteria that I was looking for. I will recommend this display to anyone who wants to do serious work and needs a reliable and fast braille display.โ€

Charles Steyn

โ€œI bought a Luna 6 reading aid from Sensory Solutions and I want to thank you in particular for your efficient and friendly service to obtain the reading aid. The Luna 6 is a pocket size reading aid for patients with reading difficulties. The advantage is a variable magnification from x2,5 to x19. One can create an underlining and change background colour for individual needs. This is indeed a very helpful reading aid and it gives one access to so many things that are otherwise lost!โ€
