Season 1, Episode 1500, Dec 02, 2022, 01:00 PM
Each week we chat with RNIB’s CEO Matt Stringer to discuss the big news affecting the charity.
Matt starts this week with an update on what the RNIB along with our VI sector partners and other charities are doing to support people affected by the on-going cost of living crisis after a recent cross-charity sector meeting earlier this week.
Following on from the launch of the NaviLens technology added to Coca-Cola Christmas large can multipacks Matt talked about what other innovation work the RNIB is doing and how one day NaviLens will hopefully be on all products on the supermarket shelves.
With the Football World Cup in full swing and the recording of this week’s update the day after the England Wales match Matt focuses on the accessibility of watching sport like the World Cup as a visually impaired person and also participating in sport too with a note to the great achievements of our own David Clarke and highlighting his daily reports on RNIB Connect Radio too.
You can catch David’s World Cup updates every week day during the first hour of the Daily Connect Show from 9am to 12noon on RNIB Connect Radio - https://rnibconnectradio.org.uk
