In a special exhibition, the municipal library is presenting a selection of titles for young and old on the topics of ‘transportation reform’ and ‘sustainable mobility’. The books can be read on site and will be available to library members as usual from 23 September.

The trained team from BSVSH e.V. offers information and advice on all topics related to eye disease.

• Basic information on the most important eye diseases
• Optical and other aids
• Legal and financial matters
• Tips and help for everyday life
• Lighting and vision
• Working with visual impairment.

In addition, a rehabilitation trainer will be on site to offer specific advice on orientation and mobility (O&M) at home, on the street or on public transport.

During a walk through the city centre, participants put on glasses that simulate various eye conditions. This allows them to experience first-hand the challenges that blind or visually impaired people face in everyday life. In case of bad weather, the event will take place indoors.

The number of accidents involving pedelec riders has risen by more than 20% annually in recent years. Many of these accidents are due to unsafe handling of the e-bike. The course consists of theory (traffic accident situations, technical information about pedelecs and adjusting your own vehicle, refresher on traffic rules, tips on theft prevention) and practice (getting on and off, starting, braking, turning, riding with one hand, riding around obstacles, etc.).

Is mobility a basic need? The film offers exciting changes of perspective, insightful connections and emotional realities of life. It provides deep insight into the meaning of mobility and freedom, thereby creating a new awareness. ‘A HUMAN RIDE’ is a cinematic journey into the primal human need to be on the move.
After the film, there will be an opportunity for discussion.
