Supermarket shopping and education in lockdown


Listen Later

Many visually impaired people are still struggling to do a regular shop but a new scheme may help. The RNIB has joined with other visual impairment charities and DEFRA to provide help to those who have not been able to access priority shopping slots online.

We hear how sports students Kali Holder and George Williams have been continuing their sports studies while their college is closed.

To access the shopping scheme, you can telephone 0303 123 9999 or visit rnib.org.uk.
