Had a fantastic afternoon in @fbaccess Offices trying out the latest version of the @ray_ban Meta smart glasses. Meta has donated 2 pairs to Féach to allow our young people to try before they buy. Thank you to Meta, mostly to our member Siobhan who drove this from the beginning.

We appreciate @CathalCroweTD for joining us today & speaking at our launch of Education Access in Ireland Project. It was wonderful to get to work with @angeleyesni for a 2nd year. Thank you to @dfatirl Shared Island funding https://t.co/4cmpsdtQgp

@Trish_Keane I am really surprised at this. I assumed it marked the start of a greater understanding and therefore changes for others too. This is very disappointing.
Dr @mccartpm is researching the educational experiences of blind and VI children in Ireland. Please partake in her research. The more who get involved a truer picture will emerge of the situation. For our members education is the biggest concern parents have year on year.
