Peter White talks to Paralympics athlete Jessica Luke about her sport goal ball and the recent decision to include the sport into the 2012 Paralympics games.
Lee Kumutat looks at the lack of audio described films on online platforms including LoveFilm and Netfilx.
Leen Petre from RNIB explains that the Communications Act only covers linear content, but adds that consumers could argue that under the Equality Act, if they are paying for online services, they should be made accessible under 'reasonable adjustment'.
Leen says that the RNIB is pushing for online services to be made accessible and will be campaigning for this in the future.
