The Assistive Technology Specialists

Concept Northern are Scotland’s leading assistive-technology provider. We help people achieve their learning and vocational goals through individual-focused equipment solutions, guidance and support.

For over twenty years, we’ve encouraged people to take control of their future by supplying equipment and support which makes a profound difference to their daily lives.

As an Access to Work and Disabled Students’ Allowance (DSA) specialist, we’ve seen the many different ways in which disability and learning barriers jeopardise personal development. Our focus is on removing these obstacles to growth, including the challenges associated with:

Dyslexia
Dyscalculia
Dyspraxia
Autism
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
Hearing loss
Visual impairment
Mobility challenges
Mental-health issues

Following a detailed assessment and analysis of an individual’s unique circumstances, we provide a comprehensive support plan dedicated to positive change. With the correct equipment, training and follow-up care, everyone can enhance their skillsets, feel empowered and build confidence for the future.

Testimonial

I know all too well what students are going through when they either start university or college. It’s such a daunting experience especially if you have been faced with a condition, however you guys make the whole experience so relaxing and are all very considerate of my condition and without the right equipment and support I am not sure how I would have fared with my course.
