Story

The community of Peebles in the Scottish Borders have come together to raise funds for a Talking Book to add to the RNIB library. 

Businesses, local groups, and individuals can take part by committing to raise £250 before the end of March 2017. This can be made as a one off donation, taking part in a sponsored event, a coffee morning, cake sale - whatever you choose.

Individuals - you can also choose to make a donation of whatever you can afford £2, £5, £10 or more - you choose! It will be added to the total and will help us towards our goal.

End isolation for blind and partially sighted people with the freedom to read again. 

Give a lifeline to someone locally with sight loss. #BooksChangeLives
