Pakflatt has been visiting various groups to demonstrate and gain feedback on the innovative McGonagle Reader (MGR). We tested the system with blind, visually impaired groups, people who speak English but can't read it and those representing people with neurodiversity. Feedback has been positive.
When developing the MGR, it was essential to collaborate with blind and partially people. Local musician Joe Kenny, blind from early years, has been supportive throughout the development and we are grateful for his assistance.

MGR was tested with blind and partially sighted people by the RNIB. It received a 93% fitness for purpose accreditation. It was also comprehensively tested by Mannalog in Dublin with excellent results. To read the test history, visit www.pakflatt.com/downloads.

Barriers to Voting.
In the General Election on 4th July 2024, over 19 million electors did not vote.
How many of these did not have english as a first language. The McGonagle Reader allows a blind person to vote but also helps those who struggle to read english text to vote.
