Continuing with a Free Talking Newspapers Service of the Kirkintilloch Herald

With the news that Strathkelvin Talking Newspaper has decided to close its doors with the last recording in December 2021 we at Cue and Review Recording Service are pleased to announce that we are going to attempt to take over the weekly recording from the 12th of January 2022

This recording will be available to listeners via the British Wireless for the Blind Funds players these players can be found at www.cueandreview.com/freepodcasts

You have various options one is to listen directly on your computer using their online web players, you can also download their telephone app which has been specially designed with visually impaired people in mind this telephone app not only will include the Kirkintilloch herald but also Cue and  Review titles such as the Herald Scotland, the Evening Times and The National along with other talking newspaper titles from around Scotland and the UK.

Finally the latest development has been the audio controlled Alexa device, this device has recently come online and means that you can get a free Alexa device from Cue and Review delivered to your home and then with the assistance of a family member be able to follow some simple voice instructions to set the device up. Once you have this set up you will actually be able to simply use some basic commands to listen each day or each week to your title of choice meaning that you will no longer need to have to post your USB stick and wallet back to the provider.

If this is something that you think you would be interested in please contact Cue and Review Recording Service on 01417723976 Monday to Friday 9 to 4.30pm and press for option 3 where you will be able to speak to myself Alastair McPhee and I will take your name and details and advise you on how best to access the option you want.
