Life of a Blind Girl:

My name is Holly, I am a 22-year-old disability and lifestyle blogger

and YouTuber. I am a lover of pop music, beauty, fashion, and all the

usual girly stuff. You can usually find me at a concert (I probably go

to way too many), spending too much time on the internet or reading a

good book.

I am blind due to a condition called Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP),

I can only see light and dark so have no useful vision. As cliche as

it sounds, my visual impairment has made me into the person I am today

and given me so many opportunities which inspired me to start my blog.

I created Life of a Blind Girl in 2015 as a way of sharing my

experiences of living with a visual impairment in a predominantly

sighted world, over the last few years it has evolved and has become

so much more than that, it is not just my hobby anymore, it is a huge

part of my life.

I want my blog and YouTube channel to be a platform that provides

people with advice and support on all things visual impairment and

disability. I also aim to tackle the stigma surrounding disability; I

will try my best to educate people on visual impairment and

disability. By doing this, I hope it portrays the fact that just

because a person is blind, visually impaired or has another

disability, it does not mean that they cannot get to where they want

to be in life, it does not mean that they have to be treated any

differently to anyone else and it does not mean that they cannot carry

out everyday tasks and activities because truth is, they can. I hope

that my blog will inspire, educate and motivate you..

You can find blog posts on all things visual impairment and

disability, assistive technology, university and a few lifestyle

posts/videos thrown in the mix, these may include concert posts,

travel posts, life hacks, giving you an insight into what I’ve been up

to and maybe even the odd vlog or two.

My Blurred World: I created my blog back in April 2015 with an aim of sharing my passion for writing, beauty and fashion with the world, highlighting how I make such topics accessible to me as a visually impaired person. My content is very much lifestyle and disability related at the moment, I love writing about my experiences as a disabled people in the hope that it will help, educate and motivate others. One of my main aims has always been to raise awareness of vision impairment in the hope of tackling the stigmas that surround it, I hope that my blog helps to do just that.
