Organisers of Vision Awareness Week say public support for events is heart-warming.
The Manx Blind Welfare Society has arranged events for people to learn about services for blind and visually impaired people – which kick-start from 14th September.
There’ll be an acoustic shooting competition, an Island-wide fundraising day – go ‘Bright for Sight’ – and ‘Walk My Way’; an annual guided walk.
Schools, businesses, Scout packs and charities have already committed to taking part.
