Description: As more information about measures to reduce the impact of coronavirus are revealed - what is their impact on the blind and visually impaired? Reliance on touch - and the impact of too much caution could have serious implications according to listener Kirsten Hearn. And Director of Operations at Guide Dogs Peter Osborne tells us what his organisation is doing to mitigate the situation in a time of upheaval. And he hinted at a change on our programme a few weeks ago - but Grant Shapps has revealed measures to ban pavement parking in England. We work through the implications of a consultation with Tom Walker, and Sarah Lambert, Head of Social Change at RNIB gives a reaction. And - if you need some light relief, a clip from Chris McCausland's recent Now Show appearance on the joys of Audio Description. Presented by Peter White Produced by Kevin Core
