Vision Ireland, the new name for NCBI. Same work, same goals - for a clearer future.
After 92 years as NCBI, we're stepping into the next chapter as Vision Ireland. Our new name is more inclusive, letting everyone know we support a wide range of visual impairments

#PurpleLights20 Collage I think. can we get these and even more buildings for #PurpleLights23 #PurpleLights aim is twofold. One making people aware of us, the largest minority in the country and two celebrating the disability community, us having a party. @DisabilityFed

The students of NLN Naas had a very productive #MakeWayDay documenting blocked paths in the community today. Drawing attention to these obstacles and raising awareness will hopefully make our streets more accessible for people with disabilities. #MakeWayDay23 #Advocacy #Inclusion
