Holly Tuke

I am an award-winning disability blogger, freelance writer and disability advocate. I currently split my time between working within the charity sector, writing articles for publications, doing a bit of radio presenting and creating content for my own blog. I created Life of a Blind Girl in 2015 as a way of sharing my experiences of living with a vision impairment in a predominantly sighted world. Over on the blog, I discuss all aspects of vision impairment and disability, as well as a few concert-related blog posts thrown in the mix.
