Making Braille Books - Behind the News

A school for kids who are blind or vision impaired in Adelaide was frustrated with the lack of braille books for students, so it’s started making its own! Volunteers help to emboss the books and add tactile pictures. We meet some of the students who are enjoying the books and find out more about braille.
