A Northern Ireland student, who was registered partially sighted from an early age, has opened up about growing up with sight loss here.
Nathan Hood, 20, has shared his story as part of a new campaign by the RNIB (the Royal National Institute of Blind People) called ‘See the person, not the sight loss’, which is challenging outdated public attitudes and misperceptions of sight loss.
Nathan, who is from Banbridge and is currently studying at Ulster University, has shared his concerns in terms of living with a condition affecting his sight here in Northern Ireland.
