DBUK is here to support you in<br />
whatever way you want;<br />
whether that is simply<br />
answering your questions<br />
about sight and hearing loss,<br />
or finding volunteers to help<br />
you become a Great British<br />
Paraclimbing Champion. We<br />
care a lot about our members<br />
and so in this edition we have<br />
included some useful<br />
information and advice to<br />
ensure you stay safe and<br />
secure this winter.<br />
Another key focus for us is to<br />
enable our members to enrich<br />
their own lives and make living<br />
with sight and hearing loss<br />
easier. Digital technology has<br />
always been one of my<br />
passions – there are so many<br />
pieces of technology out there<br />
that really do make everyday<br />
communications and finding<br />
information so much easier.<br />
Therefore, in this issue we<br />
have included a review of a<br />
talking microwave, a radio for<br />
the blind and also a<br />
contribution from our very<br />
own member, Molly Watt<br />
about how technology enables<br />
her to get more out of life.<br />
Please do enjoy the magazine<br />
and I look forward to updating<br />
you again in the summer.<br />
