Renfrewshire Sound Talking Newspaper for the Blind has for over 40 years produced a Talking Newspaper Service to visually impaired people in Renfrewshire. We provide a free service of local news which is recorded onto various audio formats such as CDs or USB memory sticks, which is distributed to visually impaired people in Renfrewshire.

Thursday 26th Feb 2026

Our service is run entirely by volunteers and we currently have a small team of around 25 people working with us. The volunteers elect a management committee that oversees all aspects of our service. For further information on volunteering please click on the volunteers tab.

Our funding is derived from a variety of sources including Renfrewshire Council, donations from grant making organisations and individual donations.
