Story

Thanks for your support with our London Marathon challenge!

Dave is a blind dad from Worcester with a weakness for crisps and beer. Rob is a Welshman living with his family in London and always up for a challenge. We have decided to take on the 2023 London Marathon to raise expectations of blind people, to hopefully make our families proud and for a better RNIB.

Every day, 250 people in the UK start losing their sight. Too many still face isolation and depression, unable to achieve their potential in a world that blocks their way. RNIB wont stop until every last psychological and physical barrier has gone for good.

With your help, RNIB can be there when people need them most, support independent living, create an inclusive society and prevent avoidable sight loss. Every pound you donate is helping create a future where sight loss is no longer a barrier.

£20 could help someone feel more confident about living with sight loss, with personalised support from our expert Sight Loss Advice Service. £47 could help someone feel more positive about the future after losing their sight, through a one-to-one phone or online counselling session. £2,500 could make a new adult book available in our Talking Books library, enabling a person with sight loss to enjoy the latest best seller.

Thank you for all your support!
