Freeview Play's New Accessible TV Guide; Calls to Save the RNIB's Giant Print Library

BBC Radio 4 - In Touch, Freeview Play's New Accessible TV Guide; Calls to Save the RNIB's Giant Print Library

A new accessible TV guide on Freeview Play. Calls to save the RNIB's giant print library.

Can Freeview Play's new accessible TV guide work for you? And calls to keep the RNIB's giant print library open, particularly for children.

We hear about the newly launched Freeview Play Accessible TV Guide which you can find on channel 555. We hear from Gavin Ellis who led the development of it.

And calls to save the RNIB's giant print library which is due to shut in January. Are the alternatives to a borrowed large print book, particularly for younger readers, going to be as good? 

PRESENTER: Peter White
PRODUCER: Mike Young

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