RNIB Conversations

With spring in the air plus the days getting warmer and longer, this week’s check-in with Glasgow based Pharmacist Elizabeth Roddick is all about hay fever.  
Elizabeth began by explaining to RNIB Connect Radio’s Toby Davey what happens in the body when we get hay fever and the types of symptoms people get with hay fever too. 
Then to what people can take to help combat hay fever. 
You will find more information about hay fever on the NHS website - https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/hay-fever/

RNIB Connect Radio's Robert Kirkwood spoke with executive producer Sana Amanat and showrunner and executive producer Dario Scardapane about accessibility, keeping up with the MCU and Daredevil's new suit in Daredevil: Born Again.
Blinded as a child, Matt Murdock works as a lawyer by day and a vigilante by night. Season 2 of the show is now streaming on Disney+ with the all important audio description.

Finally in our coverage, Hubert spoke to RNIB's very own Robin Spinks following his AI presentation.

Sarah and Nina chat to Hubert in this podcast about their workshop, and we find out more about what the Insight Network actually is.

Hubert also went to some workshops at the the lived experience conference, one of them, was technology based, regarding accessibility challenges and solutions, and a bit of AI of course. He spoke to the organisers of the workshop afterwards.
