Book Club

15th September 2022,    
18:00 - 19:00

Is the only reason you never judge a book by its cover because you can’t read the cover in the first place? With four rooms to suit different ability levels, the Book Club is a welcoming group who meet every week to support each other with the ups and downs of mastering the braille code, answer each other’s questions regarding reading using refreshable braille and practice reading amongst friends. You don’t have to choose your group in advance, and you can move to another group at any time if you think it would be more suitable.
