Matthew Layton and Sam Rickard present Studio 1 - Vision Australia Radio’s weekly look at life from a low vision and blind point of view.

Vision Australia’s Career Start Program is now open for applications

The program is designed to help recent graduates living with a vision impairment get onto the first rung of the career ladder. 

The program starts in April, lasts twelve months and consists of a nine month paid internship at Vision Australia, followed by a three month paid placement with another employer.

Matthew speaks to Gabrielle Simmons, who is part of the current crop of Vision Australia’s Career Start participants.
