Description

Listeners tell us why they think their sighted running guides should receive a medal on completing the London Marathon. Organisers tell us these policies are under review.

The BBC's technology reporter Rory Cellan-Jones has been to Cambridge to see a new tactile innovation for helping teach visually impaired children how to write computer code.

Listener Annie Rimmer has got back to In Touch to share some good news she heard from the National Lottery about plans to make their app more accessible to visually impaired users.

And Listener Mike Kelly told the programme two years ago of his trepidation about his impending retirement. We caught up with Mike to find out how retired life suits him.
