This photograph, taken on 20 March 1920, showcases an extraordinary moment of resilience and determination. Titled "Blind man at St Dunstans playing football" it captures the indomitable spirit of a visually impaired individual engaging in a game that many would deem impossible for someone with such a disability. In this monochrome snapshot from the early twentieth century, we witness the power of human adaptability as this blind man fearlessly kicks the ball. The image is a testament to the unwavering commitment of organizations like St Dunstans in providing opportunities for disabled individuals to participate in sports and recreational activities.
