Episode 2: blind gains

Episode 2 of See it our way: the VICTA podcast is out now!

Join the Changemakers’ discussion around the concept of blind gains, as they share their points of view. From the positive outcomes accessible adaptations can bring, not just to the VI community, but to society as a whole; to worries about the knock on effects of presenting accessibility needs as perks. There’s a lot to unpack! Also in the episode, meet Paralympic swimmers Eliza and Scarlett Humphries, relate to our usual round-up of ’embarrassing’ blind stories and gather tips on great accessibility features and services.
