Most of us walk through the city without thinking twice.
But for Visually Impaired People (VIPs), everyday obstacles can mean real danger.

Café boards. Silent electric cars. Bright glare.
These barriers don’t just block the path — they block freedom.

At Travel Hands, we’re building a London where every step is safe and everyone can move confidently.

Want to help?
Volunteer. Donate. Share.
Together, we can make accessibility a reality — not an afterthought.

Let’s walk towards a more inclusive world.

If you’re hosting a visually impaired person (VIP) this Christmas… watch this first. 🎄✨

Start with orientation — guide them through the space, describe the layout, and keep furniture in consistent places throughout the night.
And if anything moves, announce it.
Good hosting isn’t fancy. It’s thoughtful.

Let’s make Christmas accessible for everyone.
Follow Travel Hands for more inclusive festive tips.

Pretty décor shouldn’t create hazards.
A few small accessibility changes — like clearing pathways, securing wires, and using steady lighting — can make your Christmas setup safe and comfortable for visually impaired guests.

Inclusive spaces don’t take extra effort… just extra awareness.
Volunteer with Travel Hands.

Our long-time Travel Hands Guide shares why she’s been with us for over 3.5 years —
because this isn’t just volunteering.
It’s community. It’s dignity. It’s real human connection.

At Travel Hands, every journey is an exchange of support, stories, and kindness — with no expectations, just people helping people.

If you’re in London and want to support VIPs while building genuine connections, join our community of Guides.

The white cane is one of the most important symbols in visual impairment history, but it’s far more than a mobility tool.

It began gaining recognition in the 1930s, when painting the cane white helped drivers and pedestrians easily identify someone with sight loss. Over time, it evolved into a universal signal of safety, visibility, and independence for millions of visually impaired people.

Different canes now communicate different needs, from long canes for navigation to symbol canes for visibility and red-and-white canes used by deafblind people.

Today, the white cane represents confidence, dignity, and the right to move through the world safely.
Understanding its history helps us better respect the space, independence, and lived experiences of VIPs every day.

You don’t have to change the world
Just make someone’s walk a little easier. ‍

This , let’s remember that every small act of care, guiding someone across the road, offering directions, or simply sharing a smile, can create a world that feels safer, kinder, and more connected.

At Travel Hands, every journey between a Visually Impaired Person (VIP) and a Guide begins with one thing, kindness in motion.

You walk over them every day — but they’re not decoration.
They’re tactile warnings that help visually impaired people stay safe at crossings and platforms.
A simple texture, a massive impact.
