Claire Sisk from Stevenage starting losing her sight at 29 years old after having two strokes. Since then her core vision cells have died and she has a limited amount of peripheral vision. She was registered blind in 2017.
Claire decided to start making digital content after she was accused of not being blind in a supermarket. She says she wants to break down the stereotypes around what people think blind people can do.
Now Claire is using her platforms to help others going through sight loss and personal difficulties.

I genuinely wish this woman the best, what a lovely woman, and yet us able bodied people complain and whine?

Hello, thank you for your video. I was told by my doctor back in October that I am legally blind. I am feeling down at the moment and sometimes I don’t know what to do myself. I feel that I might be a burden to my wife. I know I am going to get worse at the time goes by and I am going to lose my sight Many blessing. God bless.

Hi! I'm also visually impaired and I thought I should ask you some questions. There are some things that I have managed to make my own version of them or do it my own way basically but I haven't quite figured out cooking. How do you do cooking as a visually impaired woman? Thank you for your videos

encountered a blind man and as he exited the carriage he rapped loudly to locate somewhat inadvertently zapping the sunflower of a sweltering psyche
