People with sight loss enjoy watching television and listening to the radio as much as their sighted peers.
However while most people can easily access television and radio programmes, people with sight loss often find themselves left out of the loop.
Therefore RNIB works with these industries and encourage them to make their equipment and content accessible for people with sight loss.
