King Charles III has been on a visit in Herefordshire today.

His Majesty has been visiting the Royal National College for the Blind in Hereford.

He met students, staff and volunteers and also watched a demonstration of Blind Footballs at the college on Venns Lane.

The King visited the RNC's Sports Hall and unveiled a plaque celebrating the college's 150th anniversary.

The Royal National College for the Blind has had a longstanding relationship with the royal family.

The late Queen was the College's Patron for many years, with Prince Charles taking up the patronage in 1997.
