A FREE library of tactile books and packs, bringing the visual world to life for blind and partially sighted people

  • Our award winning charity makes special raised versions of pictures that come to life when fingers feel them
  • Sound recordings tell the pictures’ stories while directing the fingertips across the raised image, describing what is being touched, felt and ‘seen’
  • Combining the senses of touch and hearing in this way makes up for the missing sense of sight

Thousands of books and packs are available to blind and partially
sighted children, young people and adults; their families, schools
and carers. Our Library delivers via the post to members across Britain
and Ireland

Explore subjects such as British wildlife, English gardens and the
history of art in our tactile Albums specially designed for adults.
Have fun and learn with our range of Living Picture Books (tactile and braille versions of well known children’s books ), Teacher Resource Packs and Topical Packs for children and young people.

Helping blind and partially sighted children, young people and adults

Our tactile images appeal to all ages
