The Access to Work Scheme (provided by JobCentre Plus) can provide you (or your employees) with an assessment (to discuss your specific requirements) and funding to pay for (or towards) your software, hardware and training.
This is to ensure that reasonable adjustments are made to ensure disabled workers are not seriously disadvantaged in the workplace.
