Max Conway, RNIB's National Involvement Coordinator, shares the latest opportunities for blind and partially sighted people to get involved in.

Opportunities highlighted this week included:

Call out for would-be blind or partially sighted movie stars to be part of a short film about Wet-AMD.
Fixing US, a health engagement organisation focusing on patient journeys across all kinds of health conditions are looking for people living with Wet-AMD who would be willing to participate in a short film about their condition.

Do you play a musical instrument and would like to break down the barriers blind and partially sighted musicians face?
Rachel, a PhD student at the University of Plymouth, is looking to gather information from blind and partially sighted musicians to help aid the development of an accessible digital musical interface that will enable visually impaired musicians to play in an ensemble setting alongside sighted musicians.
