BBC Radio 4 - In Touch, Navigating University

The special challenges facing visually impaired students at university.

Peter White talks to visually impaired students about coping with university life. Are they prepared, and are the institutions they attend prepared for them?

Going to university  presents special challenges if you are blind or visually impaired. It may be  your first time away from home. You have to learn a whole new level of independence from finding your way around unfamiliar spaces, to decoding lectures and fitting in with your new friends. Peter White talks to three students about their experiences.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
