April 11th: Naz Husain: Living Without Sight in a Sighted World
Naz Husain has lived with losing her sight to RP – Retinitis Pigmentosa – Although this has posed its challenges and adjustments, Naz has remained busy and positive with her work – family – and relationships to ensure she maintained her independence – and made sure she continued to share her life experiences so others could learn and find their way in life.
