Our happy customers

Tony did my original assessment, he spent so much time ensuring that we had covered all of the issues that could affect the way in which I work. He recommended equipment to help with my position and posture whilst working at the laptop and keyboard etc. The equipment was then delivered by Ryan who had previously sent me a message to confirm delivery date a details. On arrival Ryan confirmed what was being delivered then built/constructed the chair and unpacked all of the equipment and furniture. Ryan was attentive at all times, ensuring that I understood what each item was for and how it was operated.

Gabriel is a fantastic trainer. He gave me confidence in using the assistive software. He was patient, gave me time to understand the software, and answered all my questions. He has a lot of expertise, and I am happy I received Gabriel as my trainer. Thank you, Gabriel and Remtek.

I would 100% recommend Matthew Quarless as an assistive technology trainer. Matthew is clearly very knowledgeable and experienced, he took the time to understand my needs and to teach me in a way that was accessible to me. He made an excellent use of the limited time we had and I came out of our session feeling prepared to make the most of my technology.

i really cant put into words how much the ergonomic equipment and software has positively impacted my education. i never knew how a few simple bits of software and ergonomic equipment could really change the game for those with complex disabilities. My software trainer Emily S is an absolute gem! She makes sure every one of my needs are addressed and that i have a thorough understanding of how everything works in order to get the most out of each individual bit of tech. Thank you Thank you THANK YOU!

Had my training sessions with David, and feel much more confident with the software I have been given for my university degree having had the sessions. Very helpful and reassuring, and didn't move onto the next bit of information until I was comfortable to do so. He also recommended additional extensions and methods as we progressed through the sessions to improve quality-of-life when using the software. Thank you for all the help, it is much appreciated!!
