Hi Ibrahim I agree with you, completely. It doesn't promote Braille, and it discriminates against those of us who can only use Braille. I feel RNIB are leaning more towards people with some sight than those of us who have none at all. So many products have disappeared slowly over the years from their range more akin to total blindness. Perhaps this isn't the case, but it sure as hell feels like it to me and people I know in the same situation. I know the old argument that manufacturing is difficult and all that, but come on! I can't see any justification in the example you've given.

Hi Everyone. I know we?ve discussed games on here in the past, so I thought I?d raise this issue as it raises my hackles somewhat. I was on the RNIB online shop this morning looking for brailed playing cards, and was shocked to discover that these cards cost £7.26, while the standard printed cards cost less than half this at £3.5. For an organisation that claims to promote equal access, this is hardly an encouragement to take up a new hobbies or interest as it penalises those of us who must use braille. A couple of sets of these cards would set me back a Wapping £14.5, an outrageous amount of money considering that the work required to adapt these cards IE putting a suit and numeric denominator on each hardly merits such an inflated price. Thoughts anyone? All the best, Ibrahim. ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
