Rik Jones is a visually impaired singer/songwriter and musician from Wigan who has fallen in love with music at the tender age of five.  This year saw a very exciting opportunity come to fruition as Rik collaborated with adventurer and fundraiser Blind Dave Heeley on his upcoming film ‘7 Days: The story of Blind Dave Heeley’. Chatting with RNIB Connect Radio’s Simon Pauley, Rik explains how the unexpected collaboration came to be.
