    May 29 2023

    In the tenth episode of the second series, Warren and Emma talk to Bernie Reddington and her daughter, Abbie.

    Bernie lives in Norwich and is a single mother of three. Mum and daughter Abbie, both visually impaired, talk about family life and guide dogs. Bernie is full of fun and works for the RNIB as Regional Campaigns officer which enables her, with her upbeat style, to tirelessly campaign for rights for the blind. There was so much to keep us hooked, that we have divided her story into two episodes.
