Tracy Pearson, Leader of RNIB's Reader Services responds to listeners queries about talking books. Tracy tells Peter White that the service is in good shape and that where problems have been pointed out by customers, they have tried to take them on board and make appropriate improvements.
Tom Walker meets visually impaired MKDons supporter Jeff Newell and they go to watch his team play Southend United at Southend's ground. Jeff has to use his monocular to watch the action as the ground does not have an audio commentary for blind fans.
Peter also talks to Tony Taylor from Level Playing Field, a charity which promotes access for disabled football fans.
Southend United said that they are planning a move to a new stadium, which will be accessible.
