Welcome to the BWBF website

Are you aware of these startling facts?

  • There are more than 2 million people in the UK with a sight problem.
  • Approximately 25,000 of these are children
  • Ninety per cent of people with sight problems are over 60
  • Every day around 100 hundred more people will start to experience loss of sight.

Our job is to try and supply radio and audio sets to all registered blind and partially sighted people who are in need.

Will you help us?

"I am partially sighted and also have hearing problems. I got a Roberts Radio, CD and cassette player in November 2007 and I get a lot of pleasure from it.
I get Talking Books now and they are ideal. I wouldn’t like to be without my player, it is so easy to manage.
A treasured possession."
