[access-uk] Re: Tactile Maps

Hi Karl

Would a tactile globe be any use? I think RNIB sell one of these, least they used to?

Subject: [access-uk] Tactile Maps


Hi all,

I remember when I was a kid at school that there was a map of Europe on the wall made out of moulded plastic that meant you could feel the topography of the continent. Now as a blindey, I could really use something like this for
different regions of the world, even if it was something less elaborate.

Does anyone know of available tactile maps of the world, I don't read
Braille so something more instinctive would be great.  Any help would be
most appreciated.

Cheers
Karl
