The British Wireless for the Blind Fund have a free app called Speech Radio, which is set up to provide easy access to thousands of radio stations. They have recently partnered with radio aggregator Airable, and can now provide thousands more stations from all around the world. BWBF's Head of Technology David Beard tells In Touch about what is now on offer and how the app works.

What is 'showdown' in the context of blind and partially sighted people? It could mean a confrontation intended to settle a dispute, certainly, but we are exploring the specialist sport showdown. It is a fast-paced table top sport that was originally designed to be played by people with visual impairments. Our reporter Fern Lulham tried her hand to see if she would become the next showdown showstopper.

Website image description: Peter White sits smiling in the centre of the image and he is wearing a dark green jumper. Above Peter's head is the 麻豆社 logo (three separate white squares house each of the three letters). Bottom centre and overlaying the image are the words "In Touch" and the Radio 4 logo (the word Radio in a bold white font, with the number 4 inside a white circle). The background is a bright mid-blue with two rectangles angled diagonally to the right. Both are behind Peter, one is a darker blue and the other is a lighter blue.
