NI: Braille Bible
Bible Society’s Newswatch (BBC)
Crumlin Road jail inmates have made a
Braille Bible, it was reported in September.
The charity Healing Hands made this suggestion, as the inmates have been making
books there since the 1920s. One of the ten
inmates who worked on the project said: ‘I
found it extremely satisfying. It has helped
my own self-esteem enormously. It means I
can give something back to the community’.
The Bible has been given to Maghaberry
Elim Church to be used by a visually-impaired congregation member.
