While my neighbours can enjoy all the benefits of digital television, I find the new digital television, radio and mobile phone services difficult or impossible to use.

I have a sight problem which means I struggle to use a remote control with tiny numbers to use on an on-screen menu just to change channel. When I eventually find the right channel, I struggle to follow the programme because there is no audio description to fill in the gaps between the dialogue.

All this could be solved by the Government's Communications Bill - but it hasn't. That is why I will be joining a mass lobby of Parliament on Tuesday, organised by RNIB and other visual impairment organisations. We must press for changes to protect the rights of blind, partially-sighted and other disabled people.

I will be pointing out to my MP that the barriers denying me access to digital services can all be overcome at very little cost.

Advances in technology can make any communications service accessible to people with little or no sight, dexterity problems or learning difficulties. But if the law does not require it to happen, it just won't.

I urge readers to find out more about these issues and join me in pressing for changes in the law to open up TV, radio and mobile phones to everyone in our community. You can find more information by calling the national campaign hotline on 020 7391 2123.
