    Are you happy to receive our email updates?

  • As a charity we are committed to providing a free service for blind and partially sighted people so that it’s accessible to everyone who needs it. We rely on donations to be able to do this. Some library members like to be able to help if they can.

  • We occasionally hold fun and interesting events, would you like to receive invitations to these events in your area by email?

    You will still sometimes receive administrative emails from us so that we can deliver our library service to you, for example to remind you if you have overdue books, or if there are important updates about our library service that we need to inform you of. You can find out more about how we use your information to communicate with you in our privacy policy.
