Download Leadership at GDBA and RNIB, Personal safety
Media commentator Kevin Mulhern gives his view on the leadership situation at RNIB and GDBA, the leading UK charities for blind and partially-sighted people. Both organisations currently have temporary Chief Executive Officers in place and Kevin speculates on the impact this could have on the confidence of blind people in the charities' ability to lead and lobby for them in the future
Tom Walker meet Les Lightfoot, who was the victim of a serious assault last year. Les talks about how he rebuilt his confidence with the help of Henshaws Society for Blind People and has written his own set of tips for other blind and visually-impaired people on how they can stay safe and protect themselves. These are available on the Henshaw's website.
