Help everyone feel the magic this Christmas

Aadam has Fraser syndrome – a condition where both of his eyelids are fused to the cornea. Even though he has some usable sight, he still struggles, especially at Christmas time, where there are lots of things that make him feel left out, like not getting to see the festive lights turn on or meet Santa in his grotto.

But when Aadam opened his very own accessible Letter from Santa and read it by himself, he was overjoyed that Santa could write to him too!

“Hi! My name’s Keira – this year I’m on a mission to help even more children with vision impairment - just like me - feel included in all the festive magic.

I used to feel left out at Christmas – until the year everything changed! I got my first accessible Letter from Santa, and unlike most letters, this one was in braille. I could read it without Mum’s help! I finally felt included – it was so magical.

Last year, RNIB made Christmas special for children with vision impairment by sending more than 2,000 accessible Letters from Santa. There are over 25,000 children with vision impairment in the UK and too many of them are still missing out at Christmas. But, with you on our team, we can make sure many more of them can take part in this festive tradition! We can send more letters than ever before – in braille, audio and large print – to more children and show them they deserve to be included too.

You could help children with vision impairment feel included in the festive magic with an accessible Letter from Santa this Christmas.”
