New podcast gives an honest look at student life through the eyes of blind and partially sighted students

Who burned their house down? Who plays blind football and tennis? And which Student Voice has lent their voice to the Natural History Museum?

Through Our Eyes is a brand-new podcast created by Student Voices at Thomas Pocklington Trust, and it’s the first of its kind. The series explores what it’s really like to navigate the student journey with a vision impairment, from applying to university and accessing Disabled Students Allowance to settling into campus life.

In this first episode, meet the students behind the microphones as they introduce themselves, share their experiences of sight loss and talk openly about the highs and lows of university life.
