Strictly Come Dancing: Rise in visually impaired dance students

Strictly Come Dancing has been on our screens for 20 years but this year is the first it has had a blind contestant.

Step Chance Studios in Holborn, central London, wants to recruit more volunteers, so that more visually impaired Londoners can discover a world of expression beyond sight.
