Translation Advice & Accessibility

Search Moves offers the following methods of support to applicants in order to access the scheme;

  • Translation of the website into a huge variety of languages, powered by Google translate
  • Large print is available for letters, and you can change the size of the text on the website by pressing the 'Ctrl' key and + key together, or by choosing 'text size' from the 'View' option in the tool bar. Different computers and different browsers may display these options differently. 
  • Braille 
  • Giving text alternatives - Where we use graphics or images to convey important information, we also present that information in text format so it can be understood by screen-readers for visually impaired people.
  • Audio 
  • Auto bidding – If you are unable to bid yourself, or do not have anyone to help you, please contact the Search Moves Partner you are applying to / registered with for advice.
  • Property Alerts – Applicants can also register to receive email alerts when properties meeting their needs are advertised, so that they do not miss out on the opportunity to bid on any properties.
