We are pleased to introduce a new service to aid accessibility on our website for those with reading difficulties.

Thanks to Texthelp Systems LTD for providing a service which gives our visitors the chance to listen to CampHorizons.org. All you have to do is simply install the free Browsealoud software by following the steps below.

Before you install the software, you can get further information by visiting the BrowseAloud website.

     
   What is BrowseAloud? - BrowseAloud is a solution that allows visitors the option of having website content read to them. As the website visitor moves the cursor over text, it is spoken aloud. Browsealoud is free to download and you have control over the voice, word pronunciations and speech highlighting.
    How does it work? - The visitor downloads a small browser plug-in free from the enabled site. Once the plug-in has been installed, content on the enabled site can be spoken aloud.

Installing BrowseAloud is simple and free

To install the software, please click here to go to the BrowseAloud website. We also recommend to download additional voices with a higher quality speech machine.

 


Using BrowseAloud

BrowseAloud will normally start each time your computer starts. You can tell if BrowseAloud is running on your computer if the BrowseAloud icon is displayed in the system tray beside your clock.

If BrowseAloud is not running you can start it from the Start menu. To do this, click on the Start button, then select All Programs, followed by Texthelp Systems and then select BrowseAloud.

If you do not want BrowseAloud to start each time your computer starts you can switch this feature off using the Settings tab in the BrowseAloud settings window. To open the Settings window, either double click on the icon in the system tray or right click on this icon and select the Open BrowseAloud settings option from the popup menu. Click on the Settings tab and then deselect the Always start BrowseAloud when my computer starts check box.
