This week's Infosound Briefing

Edition 110: The Partially-sighted Society.

We find out about the very broad-ranging and practical help, advice and support that this UK-wide charity can offer anyone who lives with sight loss who has some remaining vision. Norman Stenson, from the Partially-sighted Society, explains how their expertise in this area has grown over the many years they've been helping partially-sighted people to get the most out of life and to maintain their independence.
