Everyone in the UK who has recently gone blind or started to lose their sight can claim a free audio Bible player from Torch Trust.
Around 90,000 people a year are told the difficult news that they are losing their sight. However, fewer than two in five say they are offered any form of emotional support, according to research from the Royal National Institute for the Blind.
‘I could listen all day long’
‘Nigel’, who helped the Christian sight loss charity test the Pathway Bible players, said: ‘I’m not religious, I don’t go to church, but I could listen to this all day long’.
