In Touch - 12/05/2009

Blind and partially-sighted guests remember when they first started losing their vision and share their practical tips with Peter. Richard Lane lost his sight 17 years ago and is curently working at the Lancet; he also recently decided to live alone. Diane Roworth is partially-sighted and heads the York Blind and Partially-Sighted Society. He likes talking microwaves and uses a colour detector to avoid fashion clashes. She praises volunteer visiting services and large print cookbooks.
