Congratulation for those who designed and produced this resource website. It is easy to use without too much fuss. I have listened and read some of the materials in Arabic and found some mistakes in the written materials. I also listened to the reader who sounded like he had not practiced his reading. He also used words not in the written text. In some cases it was appropriate while in others were not. The website is missing two way communications with users. I did not know who to contact to feedback my comments about the website. Instead I decided to write to the sender assuming that Margot Jackson at Sheffield West Primary Care Trust is the link person. Whatever the caveats are, the resource material is good and I hope people will use it and feedback their comments for improvements.
