A digital graphic celebrating World Braille Day. The background has a subtle textured pattern resembling fabric or paper. The text "WORLD BRAILLE DAY" is curved around the top in bold, blue uppercase letters. Below, "WORLD BRAILLE DAY" is also written in braille dots with corresponding small black letters above each word. At the bottom, an open book with visible pages adds a symbolic element of literacy and education. The Dayton United for Human Rights logo is placed near the bottom alongside the Instagram handle "@duhrcoalition.
An educational infographic with two sections: The first section, titled "World Braille Day", explains that the day has been observed since 2019 to highlight the importance of braille in ensuring the human rights of blind and partially sighted people. It mentions the challenges people with disabilities face, such as poverty, limited access to education and healthcare, and higher risks of violence and neglect. The source is credited to the United Nations. The second section, titled "What is Braille?", describes braille as a tactile representation of letters, numbers, and symbols, developed by Louis Braille in the 19th century. It emphasizes braille’s role in education, freedom of expression, and inclusion, citing Article 2 of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities as a reference. The United Nations is also cited as the source.
A simple yet impactful design featuring bold black text reading "LET’S EXPLORE THE AMAZING LANGUAGE OF TOUCH", followed by "BRAILLE" in large blue letters. A blue circular arrow icon on the right suggests moving forward or learning more. The background retains the same subtle texture as the first image. At the bottom, the Instagram handle "@duhrcoalition" is displayed. This post visually and textually advocates for braille literacy, accessibility, and inclusion in education and daily life.
A visual of the braille alphabet.
📚✨ Today is **#WorldBrailleDay**—a reminder that **access to information is a human right**! Braille empowers blind & partially sighted individuals with literacy, independence, & inclusion. Let's commit to making the world more accessible for all! ♿💙 #BrailleLiteracy #InclusionMatters #DUHR

Eleanor is standing on a grassy area in front of a large sign. She is holding a white cane and is wearing a black coat with a fur-lined hood, blue jeans, and white trainers. She has a light blue crossbody bag. The sign behind her reads: "Welcome to NCW - New College Worcester” The sign has an eye logo next to the "NCW" text.
Eleanor is standing at a wooden podium, speaking into a microphone with a yellow foam cover. She is wearing a bright pink jumper, dark blue jeans, and white trainers. Her long blonde hair is down. Behind her, there is a table with audio equipment and cables. The room has light-colored wooden flooring and gray walls, with a window partially visible. A framed picture of a pink flower is hanging on the wall to the left.
A picture of the Keynote Speaker introduction text sent out to all attendees that is titled in bold… “Keynote Speaker: Eleanor Stollery”, and then reads “Eleanor Stollery is a remarkable 13-year-old advocate for braille literacy. Blind from a young age due to an optic pathway hypothalamic glioma, Eleanor has already made an extraordinary impact on both the arts and accessibility. In 2019, at just eight years old, Eleanor made her professional stage debut as Tiny Tim in A Christmas Carol at London's Old Vic Theatre, reprising the role in 2020 and 2021. She is also a talented voice actor, bringing the character Lark to life in the animated series Milo on Channel 5's Milkshake. Most recently, she was featured in ‘My Life: How I See It’, a CBBC documentary which followed her journey to audio describe a live show at the National Theatre. In February 2024, Eleanor became the first blind young person to deliver live audio description for a UK theatre performance. Collaborating with the National Theatre, she described a schools' performance of The Witches using a braille script and hands-free technology to operate the audio description console. As the keynote speaker for our World Braille Day Conference, Eleanor will share her unique perspective on the importance of braille and accessible technologies, telling us how she uses braille as a young blind student and actor.”
Born on 4th Jan 1809, #LouisBraille’s legacy is celebrated on #WorldBrailleDay. Today, Eleanor delivered the keynote speech @newcollegeworc.bsky.social for The Braillists Foundation, highlighting the vital role that #braille still plays in the modern world. #BrailleLiteracy #EleanorsVoice 🤩💜
