About this episode
The episode discusses the £15 million raised by the Postcode Lottery for RNIB and features an interview with Laura Chow about their partnership.
We are celebrating the power of people helping other people and an incredible £15 million in flexible funding raised by players of the Postcode Lottery supporting the work that the RNIB does to help blind and partially sighted people live more independently and with greater confidence too. RNIB Connect Radio’s Toby Davey caught up with Laura Chow, Head of Charities at the Postcode Lottery to find out more about the history of the Postcode Lottery, the long standing partnership with the RNIB and the incredible support that players have made to many areas of the RNIB’s work which has made a real difference to the lives of many visually impaired people. Thanks to funding raised by players and awarded by Postcode Care Trust, RNIB has received an amazing £15 million in flexible funding since 2018.
