📢 Breaking! Prime Minister Andy Burnham has committed to fixing social care in England. As Government starts the conversation on how this happens, we must make sure lesser-known but vital types of social care for blind and partially sighted adults are part of it.
How are you impacted by the rising cost of living? We know that rising prices are impacting people in different ways. We’re running a short survey to understand how the rising cost of living is affecting blind and partially sighted people. Share your experiences: www.surveymonkey.com/r/XRZH36C
With the World Cup final a matter of days away, we’ve put together our social media accessibility dream team. Accessibility should always be part of the game plan ⚽
Let's talk about red flags, and now We're not talking about dating. We're talking about emojis. Emojis are fun, but every emoji is read aloud by screen readers. Too many, or using them within sentences, can make posts much harder to follow. Are your emoji habits are giving green or red flags?
We've put together our completely scientific and definitely not biased list of the worst items you could find on a touch tour.
It's that time of year when you didn’t get a London Marathon place in the ballot, but you remember we still have places. ❤️ rnib.in/LondonMarathon2027
This year’s Wimbledon is serving accessibility through the Hawk AR: Inclusive Feed, designed to make live tennis easier to follow 🎾 It works alongside the usual sports commentary and adds extra audio cues during a live tennis match. 1/3
As you’re here, we want to remind you to give your eyes a rest from the screen. Every 20 minutes, take a break of at least 20 seconds, to look at something at least 20 feet away. While you’re at it, get a sip of water, and take a couple of deep breaths too 😌

A few reminders to all football fans who've booked today off: 1: Add alt text to your social media posts, so blind and partially sighted fans can also enjoy what you're sharing. 2: Keep those sunnies on today to protect your eyes. 3: Come on England!!
1868 was a vintage year. RNIB was founded, alongside: The typewriter Traffic lights Tabasco
RNIB is older than Heinz baked beans, Coca Cola, the Eiffel Tower and the London Marathon, which you could sign up to and run with #TeamRNIB
VAR shows that sometimes a second check can change the game. Use your own Video Assistant referee and check you've added alt text before posting that gorgeous photo, so blind and partially sighted people aren't left questioning what's in the image. ⚽
RNIB was founded in 1868. We’ve lived through Queen Victoria’s reign, the invention of television and then the internet, 27 seasons of Big Brother, the planking trends, and whatever 6/7 is.
Maybe we’re drawn to making spicy content for you all because we were also founded the same year as tabasco.
Why Monday is actually the best day of the week: It’s the start of another seven days where we get to remind you to add alt text to photos you’re sharing. We’re not complaining about that tbh.
Hydration breaks 🤝 screen breaks Use hydration breaks wisely and give your eyes a break from the screen by looking at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds. And of course, hydrate.
It’s hot out there 🫠 here’s our advice for keeping your eyes healthy during this heatwave (and, tbh, all year round).
So @number10cat.bsky.social is about to welcome his 7th Prime Minister, which is roughly the same number of eye tests you should have had since Larry moved into Number 10 Downing Street in 2011* *We work in social media; we aren't mathematicians.
Blossom, poppies, and bees 🐝 Describe your beautiful garden pics for us. Upload your image, click 'add alt text', describe the photo, and click done.
🧵What are your thoughts on government plans to ban under-16s from social media? Lucy Edwards summed up many blind and partially sighted people's views in an interview. She said she was pleased to see the government taking online safety seriously, but that it could have unintended consequences.
We’re 157 years old, have never owned a lifeboat, and yet people still think we save lives at sea.
🧵It's the 2026 Men’s World Cup and there’s one question on England and Scotland fans’ lips: is it coming home? ⚽ IOHO, the real winner for blind and partially sighted fans is the accessible broadcasts. Huge thanks to BBC and ITV for making it happen!
