Corporate Social Responsibility
“Alun and I had a good laugh as we soaked in the rays walking along the Thames from London Bridge station to an exhibition at the Southbank centre – discussing everything from football, pubs and his excellent one-liners.
It was a fun day out and a great insight into the challenges that partially sighted people face in their daily lives. I hope I made a difference to Alun’s day, and look forward to volunteering with BlindAid in the future!”
Dave – Corporate Volunteer
BlindAid is keen to work with organisations who have would like to focus their Corporate Social Responsibility on events and support for blind and visually impaired people in London.
We have run several interesting and varied CSR events for the benefit of our Service Users, including Christmas shopping trips, a visit to the office of a broadsheet paper, walks along the Thames, a trip to the Tower of London, visits to art installations, cocktail evenings, collaborative art sessions and quizzes.
For many of our isolated Service Users, these events provide a rare opportunity to do something new and unusual as well as meet and socialise with others. They also enrich our corporate volunteers with rewarding experiences and new life skills.
We will ensure that the time that you give is valued and makes a real difference to the lives of blind and visually impaired people in London.
