AN exhibition of work by blind and visually-impaired adults is on show at Burnley Central Library until the end of this month.

Touch But Don't Look is designed for both blind and sighted people to enjoy.

It involves tactile exhibits, organised by Lancashire College and the Blind Welfare Society.

The show is combined with a video of regular activities at the various community centres throughout Lancashire and at weekend courses called Open Doors.

As well as viewing the video and seeing the work, sighted adults are encouraged to put on a blindfold and feel the exhibition to give them an awareness of the problems facing blind and partially-sighted people.
