Nicky’s Big Water Challenge

Nicole Milne was slowly losing her sight due diabetes and last year she was left with no peripheral and restricted central vision.

However, despite this Nicky is determined to raise money for NESS, a local charity that helped her become independent again.

Nicole’s first fundraising adventure: “Nicky’s Big Water Adventure” will take place on Friday 25th May 2018 and will involve Nicky Wakeboarding, Paddle boarding and going on the Ringo!

Speaking to RNIB Connect Radio’s Simon Pauley, Nicky tells us more about her plans for fundraising and overcoming sight-loss.
