David Davis, senior training consultant, learning and development at Nationwide, said: “Doing elements of the walk blindfolded was difficult, even with a guide, and it gave us a feel of what it is like for someone living with a sight impairment.
“It is a fantastic local charity and we’ll be looking at other fundraising initiatives over the coming months.”
