A FUNDING bonanza of £25,000 will provide a training programme for blind and partially-sighted people.

RNIB Scotland received the money from Barclays to prepare people to enter employment or training.

The free two-week Positive Steps course aims to motivate blind and partially-sighted people to fulfil their potential and plan for their future.
