746: I Can Do It Project For Blind And Partially Sighted Young People


Listen Later

UK sight loss charity Henshaws has created a residential, and virtual, training programme for young people with sight loss.

It's designed to improve confidence, develop a wide range of mobility and independence skills plus much, much more.

RNIB Connect Radio's Allan Russell spoke to Mel Cooke and Alice, from Henshaws, and Emma Cruickshank, from Pocklington Trust, to learn more about the project and how other charities can be trained to deliver the course.

If you'd like more information on the I Can Do It project, go to www.henshaws.org.uk
