I'm giving the gift of reading to blind children this Christmas. I'm raising money to ensure blind youngsters continue to receive life changing Touch to See books free from now until Christmas. And despite Covid-19

Story

Imagine discovering your child will never see; how will they ever be able to play with bothers and sisters, make friends at school or learn to read? But, with the help of our Touch to See books can take part in family life just like their sighted siblings and contemporaries. They will love bedtime stories with mum and dad. Using fingers to explore the feely pictures in Living Paintings special books while listening to their audio descriptions and they will fast develop a different way of seeing. Blind and sighted children will giggle as they find the features of, for instance, the Very Hungry Caterpillar together and his parents will know that though there are difficult times ahead, reading books, having fun with friends and engaging in the classroom are going to be much easier for their precious child thanks to Living Paintings.
