Firstly, of course, the 200th anniversary of Braille, just like every day of this special year, which has now been 197 days!
Secondly: our brand-new YouTube channel Livingbraille, where you’ll find loads of great video content coming your way soon!
We’ve already prepared a few things for the future.
You’ll also soon find all of our previous videos gathered at this address:
