 Was a senior management person contacted at RNIB with regard to this?  Maybe 
the matter needs to be taken a level higher than the Sales Representative or 
communicating on-line.

  Hello,

  I agree with you. They should abide by their own advice, that a blind or 
partially-sighted person is entitled to receive information in their preferred 
format wherever possible. If they refuse, they should have a darn good reason 
for it, and should let you know what it is, but they must think about how to 
say yes before they think about saying no. They are the leaders. If they can't 
set the example, how can they expect others to follow it?

  Regards,
  Clive

  Hello to all 

  Can I run this pass everyone and would like opinions please.

  We were going to buy a product from R N I  B but did not in the end go 
through with the purchase, reason being that they could not give us audio 
instructions. nor could they provide braille but that would not help as we are 
not competent  readers.

  This organisation are all too ready to make others provide alternate formats 
but don't do it themselves.

  We are totally disgusted. surely they should act by example.

  Hazel & Kim
