Welcome to Dotty About Braille

Dotty About Braille is a multi award winning business specialising in personalised, accessible braille greetings cards, clear adhesive labels and transcribed documents.

Since launching in May 2023, I've been featured on the television, radio, in magazines and newspapers and have received various awards and accolades. It's fantastic to see so many people supporting my business and helping to raise awareness.

You can purchase all my products through my online shop, I do have a large range of cards, covering a variety of life events, religious holidays and key milestones, but if you’re looking for a card with a specific message on the front, please order the Custom Braille Greetings Card.

Although my products are aimed at blind and visually impaired people, they are suitable for anybody with an interest in braille, or if you want to send a “secret message” to your friends and family. Add a note if you'd like me to include a braille reference sheet so the recipient can decipher the message.

I offer a range of free braille resources, to help sighted people learn braille and to raise awareness, downloads include printable braille alphabet flashcards, colouring pages and a fun (easy!) quiz.

I also have a blog where I’ll be talking about things relating to braille, accessibility, disability and running your own business. If you’re disabled and own a small business, please do get in touch as I’d love to feature you on my blog.

If you have any questions, please check out the frequently asked questions page or contact me and I’ll be happy to help.

Dotty about Braille is proud to partner with Purpl Disabled Discounts

Purpl is the UK's first discount programme, designed to help the disabled community offset the cost of being disabled. Founded by Georgina who is disabled, she knows firsthand how expensive living with a disability is and wants to help make a positive difference.
Purpl is about more than just discounts. It's about bringing the disabled community together with relevant content, inspirational stories and shared learning, whilst also giving back to disabled charities.
To become a Purpl member and access exclusive discounts, you'll need to verify your disability status by uploading an accepted document. 
For further information and a full list of eligibility documents, Purpl have created a guide explaining how this verification process works.

Watch me on Steph's Packed Lunch

All rights to this video belong to Channel 4 and Steph's Packed Lunch. Apologies for the poor sound quality, my husband recorded it on his phone from the green room!

Hayley, a white blonde female, stood outside 10 Downing Street, there is a ramp leading up to the front door. Hayley is smiling at the camera.

Can you believe I was invited to 10 Downing Street?! No, me neither! What an exciting day, I even got to meet Larry the Cat! I was there for the launch of The Lilac Review, an independent review into the barriers disabled entrepreneurs face.
