Introducing the Tactile Times 2022 accessible online advent calendar!


The Tactile Times, the world's first newspaper by young braillists, for
young braillists is pleased to announce that its 2022 online advent calendar
is now open for business! With a festive, braille-themed surprise waiting
behind every door and an interactive countdown to the 25th, it's set to be
the perfect way for young braille enthusiasts all around the world to
celebrate the build-up to the big day!

If that's not enough, following a successful pilot in 2021, the Tactile
Times elves (who are all braille users and experts in assistive tech
themselves) have been busy behind the scenes making sure that the calendar
works with as many different kinds of devices as possible including
BrailleNotes, iPads, laptops and much, much more.

You can access the calendar using the below link:  <https://is.gd/JmoVz0>

The Tactile Times is a fun, online newspaper edited by Ellie, Lexy and Theo.
United by their shared love for all things braille, it first came into being
when they collectively realized that there was no newspaper that published
articles about the sort of things that they were interested in as young
braillists.

Free to read online and with ambitious plans to begin hardcopy circulation
in 2023, the newspaper has developed a loyal, international audience of
blind children and teenagers, all bound by their appreciation of the paper's
eclectic selection of tech, jokes, sports and event listings with coverage
geared towards fellow blind readers in a way that only The Tactile Times
knows how.
