Young Reporter: Blind people 'want to play our part' in going green

With an increase in people trying to live a sustainable lifestyle, a charity has warned that blind people can be "excluded".

Marc Powell, from the Royal National Institute of Blind People, said: "To people like myself who are blind or partially sighted, we want to play our part."

Mr Powell added that a "lot" of information, including recycling details on packaging, was conveyed visually: "Therefore I am excluded from that."

This story was told by Maisie Goodwin in Halifax as part of the BBC's Young Reporter project.
