You asked, we delivered. This Friday we’ll be taking a break from our usual open forum to bring you the Braillists Christmas quiz of 2020! We’ll bring the questions, you bring your quizzing brains, something
to write on and maybe even a Christmas tipple to celebrate the start of the weekend. This event will be starting promptly at 6PM so please make every effort to arrive in good time if possible.

Is the only reason you never judge a book by its cover because you can’t read the cover in the first place? Open to both new and more experienced Braille readers alike at the Braillists Book Club, a small group who meet every week to answer each other’s questions regarding reading using refreshable Braille and to practice reading amongst friends.
Whilst our formal Friday calls have now come to an end, we appreciate that for many people the world is still far from normal. If this is you why not join us for an hour of light-hearted chat this Friday at 6PM (UK) to ease yourself into the weekend? day Social at 6PM

With restaurants, cafes and pubs all trying to entice us back out with tantalising money off promotions today we’ll be tackling the issue of eating out with little or no sight. Feel knocked for six at the sight of chopsticks? Do you stay well away from the buffet? What do you do when your strawberry compote arrives in a plant pot? Michelle, Elin and Ben will be sharing their experiences around eating out as blind people but there’ll be plenty of time for all of your questions and tips as well. If you’ve ever ordered a burger for accessibility reasons when you’ve secretly wanted something else this session’s for you!

Join us for another live cook along where we’ll be combining what we’ve learnt from 2 of our recent sessions to make a microwave mug cake. Once the cake has passed the taste test we’ll spend the rest of the session answering questions about microwave baking and cooking in general.

Whilst for some cooking can be an incredibly satisfying experience it’s important that we all know how to do it safely which will be the subject for today’s session. Whether it’s a finger in the foie gras, a fire in the fryer, iced scone on the iPhone or bourbon on the BrailleNote we’ve all had our own accidents in the kitchen but embarrassing stories are completely optional here as we’re more interested in any tips you have for staying safe as opposed to times that it went wrong.
