RNIB has recently collaborated with Seamus Heaney HomePlace to provide some accessible signs for their new Sensory Garden.

Seamus Heaney HomePlace is an arts and literary centre, which celebrates the life and work of the late poet and Nobel Laureate, Seamus Heaney.

Michelle Lee from RNIB’s Tactile Maps and Images Executive spoke to us about the solutions that they came up with to create the best accessible for all outdoor experience.

Michelle is chatting to RNIB Connect Radio’s Simon Pauley.
