Guest : Dr Armand  Bam | Executive Director  at League of Friends of the Blind (LOFOB) |

Very sad news to open the show today. Tonight we remember Heidi Volkwijn, a visually impaired respected motivational speaker and manager of services for youth and adults at the League of Friends for the Blind, who died over the weekend due to Covid-19. Heidi was very passionate about we as a community can link up and stand together in support of those struggling to find their feet after losing their eyesight.  This is the kind of message (from LOFOB's Facebook page) , Heidi would wish to share with the young girls and women who access LOFOB’s rehabilitation programme after becoming blind. “Through my blindness I have learnt many lessons. Above all I have learnt that life is 10% how you take it and 90% what you make of it! Blindness is an impairment, it does not determine your ability to achieve all you aspire to be and dream of doing.”That's the kind of legacy she held Dr Armand Bam Executive director at LOFOB remembers Heidi now 
We’re so sorry for your loss and for the loss to LOFOB.  Can you share a few personal memories of Heidi?How would you like to honour Heidi and the work she did for the visually impaired community? Heidi has left behind Amy Volkwijn (19) who sadly also lost her dad Barry in one day Our thoughts are with her family at this very sad time. 
She could put sighted people to shame, because you can see, but what are you doing with your life?
