As a process of our planning we have researched information on blindness from a range of websites, this was to help us gain a wider range of knowledge and understanding about what it is like to be blind.
Another reason of this research was to build the character profile of our main character named 'Jessie.'
This research enables us to give background information into the reasons why she has visual impairment and to help give awareness of younger people with visual impairment.
The main reason we chose to base our story on a young girl who is blind is because stereotypically when you talk about visual impairment you would think of an older person so we have gone against this stereotype in order to help make awareness of the fact that younger people also suffer from these kind of disabilities.
