Matthew Layton and Sam Rickard present Studio 1 - Vision Australia Radio’s weekly look at life from a low vision and blind point of view.

This week:

With Matthew back in the UK for a much needed catch-up with friends and family, Sam welcomes Vicki Couzens to co-present the show.

This week we attend Royal Society for the Blind in Adelaide’s TechFest 2022 and look at and touch the adaptive technology from a number of developers and providers including; Magnifiers Australia; Pacific Vision and Quantum RLV

Please get in touch with the show, whether you have experience of any of the issues covered in this episode of Studio 1 or if you think there’s something we should be talking about.

You never know your story and your insight may help somebody else who is dealing with something similar.
