Raising funds for the purchase of Mountbatten Braillers
for Lucas Murray and his friend Adam Mitchell.
Lucas and Adam both have Septo-Optic Dysplasia, a
condition that causes them both to have endocrine problems and profound blindness.
Braille is the only route to
literacy for the profoundly blind. These machines, at £ 3000 each, are the only
way to allow a child of limited physical strength immediate access to
writing. Voice synthesis and Braille to
print will aid learning and teaching, and facilitate inclusion.
What: Ascent
of Kilimanjaro by the Rongai route
