Do you want to help RNIB shape children’s TV programmes?
WE ARE LOOKING FOR CHILDREN WITH VISION IMPAIRMENT (VI) AGED 5 – 8 YEARS TO JOIN A VIRTUAL FOCUS GROUP.
We would love to hear their thoughts (and yours as parents/carers) on the accessibility features and representation of VI in a new children’s TV programme. We are interested in hearing from children in this age range from anywhere in the UK and with any level of vision impairment.
The online focus group will be held on 8th April from 4pm until around 4:45pm. We’ll hold this via Microsoft Teams initially, and then follow up afterwards with a few questions by email.
THERE WILL BE A £50 VOUCHER FOR ANYONE SELECTED TO PARTICIPATE.
To register your interest and for any questions, please email: broadcasting@rnib.org.uk by Thursday 28 March.
