Hi all, I work in Coventry with adults with learning difficulties and disabilities. Since September I have been taking a group of 10 of them birdwatching. We only manage to get out in the field for around an hour or so each week but we do see quite a lot and they find it very engaging. We generally visit places with water such as Coombe Country Park and Ryton Pools Country Park where there is not too much walking and plenty of ducks and geese to see. We have around five pairs of binoculars but they are quite small and they find them difficult to use. So I have decided to try and get some new ones and would like some information if possible. I need to buy 10 pairs of bins and hopefully they will be 8x32 or 8x42 and have some eyecup system that allows spectacle wearers to use them without having to remove their spectacles. I am not bothered if they are made of plastic but I want them to provide a good view. The kicker is that I can raise £300-£400 but no more. I would need to be able to try them before buying them so UK only.
Any ideas would be most welcome.
Cheers
Dave
