Thursday 5^th March

Thursday 12^th March

Thursday 19^th March

Thursday 26^th March

Thursday 2^nd April

All days 10.30am – 3pm

The course is informal and friendly. It is open to people with all levels of sight loss. We cover topics such as eye health, emotional aspects of sight loss, technology, benefits, housing, leisure and being independent as much as we can. This list is not exhaustive and the course will be tailored as much as possible to the group of individuals taking part.  We will also have guest speakers coming in giving relevant presentations to us all, letting you know what is available to you and how to access help and support especially with welfare benefits.

We would particularly like to encourage those new to sight loss who may need advice, guidance and support with any of the issues outlined above.

For more information or to book a place please get in touch.
