blind in business
London
Blind in Business was founded in 1992 by three blind graduates. After graduating
from university with good degrees we initially found it difficult to gain work,
due to misconceptions and wariness from employers who were wary about visual
impairments. But we persisted, and two of us became partners in leading law
firms. The third went on to do a Master of Business Administration at Cranfield,
and became a successful businessman – making history as the first blind person
to gain this qualification. We launched Blind in Business to help other blind
and partially sighted graduates to compete equally with sighted candidates for
good jobs, by providing help, support and training, and by removing barriers to
success. Since we started the business, it has grown beyond our initial dreams,
and now helps hundreds of people achieve their goals. The three of us are now
Trustees on the Board and have a maintained a close interest in Blind in
Business’ charitable activities.
