Alison,
I'm just very sorry I won't make it to Sight Village again this year because
I'd love to have dropped by ...
As for the wash-out, I can only say that I appreciate how hard you're all
trying ...
I just wish I had a few more brainwaves on this one too ... <Smiles>

Subject: [access-uk] Penfriend laundry labels and what's
new at Sight Village
Hi,
I think John mentioned last week that we were hoping to
have some news on the Penfriend laundry labels at Sight
Village. Unfortunately the four different samples of
labels might be good enough for the defence industry, but
they were literally a wash out for us. So, we're back to
the drawing board, but it's still top of our list of
projects.
We always get asked what's new this year at Sight
Village. We have some dedicated Sight Village webpages
where you can get a full list of products on display
<http://rnib.org.uk/sightvillage> . We are also hosting
a number of seminar sessions, and you can find out more
about them on the webpages too. There will even be a bit
of cake at the 11.00 session, but we're not telling too
many people about that!
This year we have some space dedicated to Apple products,
so for those who haven't managed to get their hands on
the new iPad and other Apple goodies, then come along and
have a play!
Improving accessibility - for the first time we're
trialling the use of RNIB's PenFriend so you can find out
for yourself what's located on each table.
We've also included an audio booth which we're hoping
will help address some of the noise issues that some of
us have at these big events. It will provide an
opportunity to sit down at a sound box with a talking or
audio product to hear it for yourself without the noise
from the crowd.
For those who manage to get there, it would be great to
have your feedback on what works (or doesn't).
Hope to see you next week.
Regards
Alison
