Anne Adams is a visually-impaired benefits right's advisor working at the CAB, who, unable to access a DWP form for PIPs, now has to employ a support worker to help her do her job of assisting other blind people to complete their PIPs (Personal Independence Payment) forms. She tells Peter about her fury and sadness she feels by having to have sighted assistance and explains that it now makes her feel 'disabled' and not independent at all. Tom Walker takes up his racquet and goes to Leeds to meet some blind tennis players, including Kelly Kronin and Ben Green. Jane Taylor is a visually-impaired journalist and makes her In Touch debut by delivering a column about confirmation bias.
