Matthew Layton and Sam Rickard present Studio 1 - Vision Australia Radio’s weekly look at life from a low vision and blind point of view.

On this week’s show…

We cross to New York, New York to talk to Nancy D Miller, Chief Executive Officer of VISIONS Service for the Blind and Visually Impaired - one of Vision Australia’s American cousins.

Nancy is a legend in the world of service provision for the vision impaired - she has been working in her current role since 1987

Nancy tells us about the aims of the VISIONS organisation and the services it provides.

She also speaks very movingly of how her organisation, her clients and her city got through the traumas of 9/11 and the coronavirus pandemic.

Please get in touch with the show if you have experience of the issues covered in this episode of Studio 1, or if there’s something you think we should be talking about.

You never know, your story and your insight may help someone who is going through something similar.
