This week, join Simon and Andrew as they chat to the founding members of the band The Grand Delusions Art Karnasuta (Vocals, guitar) and Emmanuel (Manny) Lee (Keyboard) about their mission to inspire community involvement through music.

Art and Manny discuss how they manage their respective vision impairments while encouraging others to join in community activities. Reinforcing the importance of sharing personal anecdotes and lessons to assist those with similar situations or struggles. It is truly inspiring to see how music can create a sense of belonging, joy and confidence through shared experience and vulnerability.

For those based in WA who are blind or low vision, here are some great community groups to join:

Blind Golf WA

Can be found through Facebook or the Blind Golf Australia website which hosts games around the country to build skills, share a passion for golf and create friendships. 

WA Tandem Cycling

Can be found here to participate in regular rides for fun or participate in community events.
