How we help
We provide an integrated approach to fit the varying needs of people living with visual impairment.
Core services
Sight Support service
Home visits and regular calls are crucial moments of connection for our Service Users because they are often homebound and experiencing physical isolation. Our dedicated and caring team of Sight Support Workers, provide emotional support and practical help during their calls and visits to Service Users.
Each contact we provide is focussed on the needs of the individual we are supporting.
Camden Community project
Social isolation is one of the biggest hurdles in the lives of Londoners living with a visual impairment.
To encourage independence, confidence and social inclusion, we offer free, two-hour classes over a 16-week term, ranging from practical information to personal and creative development.
Our Camden Community Project is funded by the City Bridge Trust.
Additional support
To round out our core services, we provide wraparound services to fulfil additional needs.
Share London
With this service, blind and visually impaired Londoners can be partnered with local volunteers to get out of their homes and engage in social activities in the community. We are currently unable to accept external referrals for this service.
Grants
At times, we make grants available to assist blind and visually impaired Londoners on low incomes. Grants are subject to criteria and typically up to £400.
We visit around 1000 blind and partially sighted people in the 12 inner London boroughs every year.
