📢In our next case study, Charmaine calls Braille a “lifeline”.

🗣️“We need to be able to find the food that we want to eat, not just grab something off the shelf and then put it back. Braille labelling would absolutely help with that.”

Happy World Braille Day!

Thanks @JeremyRBalfour for the motion highlighting the importance of braille and the difference it makes to the lives of many blind people.

Accessible communication is essential for inclusion and today we celebrate Louis Braille.

(1/3) This week, disability activist @lucyedwards shared an instance where a security tag was covering #braille on a skincare product they purchased. Covering braille prevents braille users from independently identifying and using products.

(2/3) #Braille is a key part of accessible communications. We are calling on @scotgov to introduce mandatory braille labelling on food products for retailers, because we believe everyone should be able to identify food products safely and independently.
