Recording audiobook for visually impaired readers
Nottingham, England, United Kingdom
Aim: My book is about overcoming the challenges of visual impairment. I want to record the audiobook for visually impaired readers.
My story
I have been visually impaired since birth. As a child, the people around me focussed on what I couldn't do. I was told that I would never gain qualifications or be employable. Now that I have been running my successful Will Writing business for 11 years, I have finally made myself unemployable. My husband is blind and we have a fully sighted son.
The Book
I published my first book "She Will Never... Achieving my Vision with a Visual Impairment" in print and Kindle formats in October 2022. It is an honest, funny and moving account of my transformation from "the only disabled child in the playground" to a successful business owner, keynote speaker and mum.
Supporting Sight Loss Charities
A percentage of sale proceeds to to support two sight loss charities - Nystagmus Network and My Sight Nottinghamshire.
It is very important to me that my book is released as an audiobook - as many visually impaired people cannot read print books - me included.
The Project is ready to go!
I have found a local recording studio where I could record the audiobook myself - which is really exciting - but I know I won't make the cost back so I am looking for funding of £5,000.
