"How do blind people get jobs?" The blind and partially sighted community are frequently asked questions loaded with misconceptions surrounding sight loss. Sometimes the questions can be inappropriate, hurtful or just plain daft! With #BeforeYouAsk, blind and partially sighted people banish misconceptions surrounding what it’s really like to live with sight loss in a fun and insightful way. Ask more questions with our video chat rnib.in/AskAQuestion [Transcript: Just like anyone else. It's usually based on skills and experience and talent. And with the right adjustments in place, whether that is, um, magnification software or voiceover settings or, um, navigational routes that have to be taken, it's totally capable of having a job. RNIB see differently.]

So true but the Blindness and Low Vision have to constantly fight the stigma. Great video RNIB
