Hi,
We have a small number of tactile globes free to good homes. We have
been distributing them to schools through our Curriculum Information
Service, so Customer Services will not be able to advise you.
If anyone is interested in a globe, please let me know.
Thanks
Alison

Hi all -
I'm trying to track down a world globe that can be used by the totally
blind. I've tried the RNIB [yes, I should have known better!] they've
nothing, and seemed perplexed even by the enquiry! I've Googled for it,
and found [using the translation tool] a Braille globe on a Dutch
website, that sounds quite good, in that it has continents that can be
detached for closer scrutiny, and put back in place, it also has quite a
lot of other useful sounding features; however, it is 225 Euros! I
didn't have that much in mind when wanting such a thing.
I do understand the difficulty with keeping a globe up-to-date etc, but
anyway, anybody got any suggestions where to try?
Thanks -
Andy
