Narrator: Adding just a few steps
to your routine can help you with household chores
no matter your level of vision.
Here are a few tips that can make sorting
and washing clothes a little easier.
The first thing you can do is make sure your laundry
room has good lighting.
It will not only help you see things easier,
but also helps identify colors.
See our resource list in this workshop for lighting options.
Be sure to read the manufacturer's label
for cleaning instructions.
And if they're hard to read, use a handheld magnifier.
Use a basket that has two different sections,
or two baskets or bags so you can put light clothes
in one and dark clothes in the other.
And if your baskets are a different height or size,
that can also help you know which one has lights or darks.
If you're having difficulty identifying light
from dark, check out Hadley's
clothing organization workshops
for helpful tips and tricks.
-: Now that you've had a chance to learn a bit with us,
we'd like to learn more about you.
Your name, email address, how you heard about Hadley,
and your relationship to vision loss.
Learning more will give us a better understanding
of how to personalize Hadley just for you.
And don't worry, everything you share with us online
will be kept safe and secure.
Of course, if you prefer to talk through these questions,
we're just a phone call away at 800-323-4238.
Taking these few steps saves your preferences
so you can continue right where you left off
and track your progress every time you log on.
Plus, it connects you to the Hadley community,
and helps sustain our funding to keep Hadley
free of charge.
And last but not least, it gives you direct access
to experts, like me.
