Seen, is a new photography exhibition featuring 22 powerful portraits that bring into focus the lives of blind and partially sighted people.  The exhibition is a collaboration between the RNIB and photographer Joshua Bratt.

Over the last two years, Joshua has travelled the country, meeting people with sight loss and capturing their stories through his lens. These portraits reveal the extraordinary lives of blind and partially sighted people: individuals thriving in their careers, pursuing their passions and overcoming barriers.

RNIB Connect Radio’s Toby Davey was there for the launch of the Seen photography exhibition on Thursday 11 September 2025 and caught up with Anna Tylor, RNIB Chair of Trustees to find out more about what it was like for Anna being photographed by Joshua Bratt and how the exhibition will hopefully change the general publics opinion and perception of what life is like for blind and partially sighted people.

If you're in London this weekend, free tickets are still available for Saturday 13th and Sunday 14th September. Book here: Seen Photography Exhibition Tickets, Multiple Dates | Eventbrite
