Did you join either of our Conferences this year? You can read about them inside this edition of Look Forward. We’ve had some fantastic feedback from our delegates so if you weren’t able to attend, you can watch or listen to the recordings from the day on our website.

In this episode Laura and Mark talk about their dreams and how they see the world in sleep. Mark is living with retinitis pigmentosa so his sight has deteriorated over his life, whereas Laura lost her sight at a very young age. They also briefly cover Charles Bonnet Syndrome (CBS).
