According to the World Blind Union, over 90% of published books remain inaccessible to blind and visually impaired readers. The World Health Organization estimates that 1.4 million children under 15 are irreversibly blind. Audiobooks play a key role in blind children’s literacy, yet they can cost up to four times more than print—out of reach for families of blind children, as two-thirds live at or below the poverty line. So RSBC, the UK’s leading charity for blind and partially sighted children, hacked a ritual every parent knows: bedtime reading. Bedtime Donations is an app that records the stories parents read aloud and turns them into free audiobooks, giving blind children access to literacy and imagination. It offers two modes: Readers, for parents to donate their stories, and Listeners, for blind children to enjoy them. Bedtime Donations became the most popular app on the UK Apple App Store 24 hours after launch. 8 days, 5 hours, 53 minutes of free audiobooks donated, more than 500 audiobooks recorded in less than 72h, with 63 min of stories played daily per average user. Designed with accessibility experts, the app is inclusive by design. Built to grow with new stories, genres, and voices, Bedtime Donations can become the world’s largest free, shareable audiobook library, powered entirely by families.
