image representing news article News & Events

4 January marks World Braille Day. This day marks the importance around Braille as a communication method and to help increase awareness about it. This allows inclusivity, freedom and empowerment for people who rely on this communication method so they are able to be independent. The Braillists Foundation will be holding an online event to mark World Braille Day on January 4, 2026. Details are still in the final planning stages, but information will likely be available soon on their website.

This is a helpful reminder to ensure information and services are accessible for everyone who needs support.
