Content

Vision is RNIB's flagship magazine for our growing membership.
Its principal aim is to provide a supportive and interactive forum for people with sight problems. People often feel isolated and fearful particularly when first diagnosed with a sight problem, and Vision feels like a friend dropping in.

It contains a mixture of readers' letters, human-interest stories, interviews, product reviews, practical hints and tips for daily life, information about RNIB services and other national and local organisations. The magazine's tone is lively, chatty, positive and direct.

Frequency

Bimonthly, six times a year.

RNIB's clear print guidelines

We would like to provide the following tips to ensure your advert is accessible to people who are blind or partially sighted:

  • The best fonts to use are Arial or Century, between 12 and 14 point. The larger the minimum type size, the more people you will reach.
  • The better the contrast between the background and the text, the more legible the text will be.
  • Black text on a white background provides best contrast.
  • Blocks of capital letters, underlined or italicised text are all harder to read. A word or two in capitals is fine, but avoid the use of capitals for continuous text.
