It is a statutory requirement that deafblind people receive support to communicate and socialise; so why are so many local authorities failing to identify their needs? Lucy Drescher from the deafblind charity Sense and Ann Bristow from the Association of Directors of Adult Social Services discuss.
Many blind people are unimpressed by the move towards 'shared surfaces', where people and traffic share the same space. We join protesters in the London Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. Kulveer Ranger, the Mayor of London's Director of Transport, answers their worries.
Is it fair to take a guide dog on a long haul flight? We want listeners' views.
