BBC Radio 4 - In Touch, Blindness for Beginners - Shopping

Blindness for Beginners discusses shopping with Richard de Costobadie and Diane Roworth.

Peter White presents a Blindness for Beginners edition about shopping, with broadcaster Richard de Costobadie and CEO of the York Blind and Partially Sighted Society Diane Roworth.

In Touch revisits its 'Blindness for Beginners' series to look at shopping. Peter White is joined by broadcaster Richard de Costobadie and Diane Roworth, CEO of the York Blind and Partially Sighted Society, who share their experiences and advice on what can make shopping trips easier.

They discuss the best way to retain your independence and choice if you're blind or visually-impaired. The emphasis is on staying in control and finding the best way to get exactly what you want without losing your autonomy .... or temper.


Producer: Cheryl Gabriel.
