Story

Hot on the heels of Peebles Community Talking Book for adults, I would like to raise funds for Talking Books for the RNIB Library.

Whether somebody is blind or partially sighted, has autism, dyslexia or ADHD; if a child cannot physically read a book , they are most welcome to access RNIB Talking Books free of charge. Brilliant!  

We have now held three charity afternoon teas and our fourth is booked for 2020!   

If  you would like to get involved please let me know !


About the campaign

Sponsor a Talking Book and help us create a world without barriers for blind and partially sighted people.

About the charity

Every day 250 people in the UK start losing their sight. With your help, we can be there when people need us most, support independent living, create an inclusive society and prevent avoidable sight loss. Every pound you raise will help create a future where sight loss is no longer a barrier.
