Jemma Davidson, RNIB Customer Voice Insight Coordinator shares the latest opportunities for blind and partially sighted people to get involved in with RNIB Connect Radio’s Toby Davey.

Opportunities highlighted this week included:

The RNIB is looking for blind and partially sighted people from across the UK to take part in a series of online focus groups. There will be 2 sessions, each lasting approximately 2 hours 15mins.  The RNIB is currently looking for participants to take part in focus groups starting in April 2023 and will be focusing on your experiences of rehabilitation services. 

Call the RNIB Helpline on 0303 123 9999 and ask to sign up to the Voice of the Customer Focus Groups or email [email protected] for more details. 

This is a special opportunity to help the RNIB create a better world for people with sight loss.  The latest quarterly Tracker survey is now out with a special focus on the rise in cost of living, with some questions around your opinions and experiences of using the radio, as well as some questions on wellbeing. 

This is your opportunity to put your voice at the centre of what the RNIB does  and help to shape and direct the future work of the RNIB.

To make your voice heard, please email [email protected]  or [email protected] for more details and how to get involved.

RNIB Connect Radio team is looking to speak with blind or partially sighted people, who plan to participate in the celebrations.

Interviews will be pre-recorded via Microsoft Teams, Zoom, or phone and should only take around 20 minutes of your time.

If you’d be happy to speak to one of our producers, please send an email to [email protected]
