Each week we sit down with Matt Stringer, CEO of RNIB, to look at some of the big stories coming from the UK sight loss charity.

This week Matt started by talking about Global Accessibility Awareness day and some of the things RNIB have been doing to mark the day including ‘Another time’ by Sir Anthony Gormley with alt text description plus alt text being added to the new portrait of His Majesty King Charles III.

Then to a mention about Mental Health Awareness Week focusing on movement and the support that the RNIB is able to offer anyone who might be feeling the stress and emotional impact of their day-to-day life as a blind or partially sighted person. 

Ending with a mention about the up-coming RNIB See differently Awards 2024 supported by People’s Postcode Lottery winners which is taking place in central London this coming week. 

If you, or someone you know, would like information on the support and services available from RNIB, go to www.rnib.org.uk
