Our weekly catch up with RNIB CEO Matt Stringer to share some of the latest news and projects coming from the UK sight loss organisation.

This week Matt and Connect Radio’s Toby Davey chatted about the news that retailers in Northern Ireland have been using RNIB guidelines to ensure that blind and partially sighted shoppers are supported as shops and other retail venues start to reopen their doors, how RNIB is joining other organisations in supporting an open letter backing the Department of Transport's 'It's Everyone's Journey' campaign, the launch of the new Strategic Stakeholder Engagement Team at the RNIB, ways you can support the work of the RNIB while shopping on Amazon through Amazon Smile and finally how Matt has been getting on with Marathon Mates.
