RNIB is delighted that blind and partially sighted TV viewers will be able to watch the Opening Ceremony of the Paralympic Games on Wednesday 29 August with audio description (AD).
Channel 4 and More4 TV channels will be broadcasting the Opening Ceremony simultaneously and to receive the AD you will need to watch it on More4.
To view More4, simply tune in on these channels, or check your TV listings guide:
