Join us for a unique, immersive networking experience that’s already drawing strong interest: Blindfold Netwalking, brought to you by Speed Of Sight and proudly sponsored by Mistoria Group.

This isn’t your typical business networking event. It’s a powerful and eye-opening opportunity to step into the shoes of someone living with sight loss – all while connecting with fellow professionals and supporting a life-changing cause.

How It Works.

Participants will walk in pairs – one blindfolded and one guiding – on a short but meaningful route through Manchester city centre. Starting at Parsonage Gardens, the walk will take approximately 45 minutes each way, with participants swapping roles at the halfway point.

The walk will be led by none other than our co-founder Mike Newman, the world’s fastest blind man, accompanied by his guide dog, Stan.

All blindfolds and safety instructions will be provided on the day. A map and route details will also be issued before we begin.

Why We’re Walking

This event is designed to raise awareness of the challenges faced by blind and visually impaired people and to reflect the trust and teamwork at the heart of everything we do at Speed Of Sight.

Your participation helps us deliver more unforgettable driving experiences to people of all ages and abilities – from children as young as 7 to inspiring individuals aged 102!
