The brilliant Theo, who grew up on our books, now inventing and changing the world. Nobody who knows him would expect anything less.

Awesome Eleanor grew up reading our books, uses braille in all aspects of her life and work, and this #WorldBrailleDay delivered a brilliant speech on the vital position #Braille plays in modern life. Happy #Braille200 Eleanor and everyone.

We couldn't think of a nicer way to celebrate #WorldBrailleDay than this entertaining quiz by RNIB starring ClearVision borrower Dave Williams, who borrowed our print and #braille books to read with his sighted son. Learn more about braille and #braille200

So delighted to hear Frank Cottrell-Boyce talking about the importance of reading with children on his #r4today Guest Edit. This is why we exist: to let families with blind and sighted members read together. It makes a difference, it matters, for everyone.

We love that this year @worldbookdayuk is championing children’s reading choices, encouraging everyone to Read Your Way! We couldn't agree more with them that every reader is different, and there’s no right or wrong way to enjoy reading šŸ™Œ #WorldBookDay

It's #WorldBookDay - but why is reading and sharing stories so valuable for children, anyway? This is why šŸ‘‡ booktrust.org.uk/what-we-do/imp…

You can rely on @BookTrust to put it perfectly! All ways of reading, for everyone. As an accessible library, that’s certainly what we’re here for! For #WorldBookDay titles in braille, contact RNIB, for large print it’s Guide Dogs and audio Calibre Audio!

All set up and ready to go at the VIEW conference today! Always great to speak to so many professionals who use our books directly with children and recommend us to families and schools. The picture in SEN overall is grim, but it’s good to meet so many points of light.

The UK Govt has proposed major benefit changes that could leave blind & partially sighted people much worse off. Stricter PIP criteria & UC changes risk devastating impacts. We’re deeply concerned. Write to your MP: bit.ly/42fJf96 More info: bit.ly/3E5lkkK

If you need books which contain both print and braille in order to take part, ask your library! Many public libraries host collections of our books which mean anyone can walk in off the street and read, even if they need braille.

Happy HiVis Fortnight everyone! This wonderful couple of weeks is all about how public libraries make themselves accessible to those who can't use regular print. Just like Merton Libraries, below, who have a collection of our books to support their braille readers! #HiVis2025
