Online Access.
There are many ways of getting the Crewe and Nantwich Talking Newspaper. Our "traditional" option is to send out memory sticks, which can be played on a computer, a compatible mp3 player, or on a player that we can provide in some circumstances. This option is available to visually impaired persons only.
Equipment can be purchased from the Royal National Institute of Blind People (RNIB). The RNIB shop (https://shop.rnib.org.uk/) stocks a range of USB and media players: https://shop.rnib.org.uk/reading/reading-devices/usb-and-media-players
The content is the same whether you listen via USB stick or online.
Online versions of the Talking Newspaper are usually updated on Wednesday. The advantage with listening online is that you will receive your Talking Newspaper more quickly, as you do not have to wait for the USB stick to be delivered.
If you are using a phone through the mobile network, remember that listening to an edition of the Talking Newspaper will use about 50MBytes of your data allowance.
