In our Sight Loss Story this week, Hubert chats to Alex, who tells him about his sight loss journey, but also talks about how he reviews various theatre trips, different plays, and what sort of information his reviews provide to blind and partially sighted theatre goers.

If you have perhaps eaten a bit too much over the holidays and maybe feeling a little bit heavier than before.  Well don’t worry as for the first check in of 2026 with Glasgow based Pharmacist Elizabeth Roddick it is all about weight loss. 

Elizabeth began by explaining to RNIB Connect Radio’s Toby Davey about the current position around weight loss injections such as Mounjaro and whether you can get the injections on the NHS.

Then to why it is not only a good idea but important to try and avoid processed foods.

Ending with some good advice from Elizabeth about eating well and exercising regularly too.

You will find more information around weight loss injections by visiting the NHS England website -
