We provide monthly free, fun, outings and activities, for visually impaired children and their families throughout the year, so that they can come together, share experiences, and provide valuable advice to one another, whilst establishing relationships. The children can make friends and realise they are not alone and the parents are able to network and provide great support to one another.
What we do
- The charity trustees all work completely voluntarily in their spare time and are all parents of Visually Impaired children. We are all very passionate about the services we provide.
- We know that most children diagnosed with a visual impairment (VI) attend mainstream school and therefore have little, or no contact, with other VI children. This often results in them feeling very much isolated and parents can also feel this way.
- We provide monthly, free, fun, outings and activities for visually impaired children and their families throughout the year.
- We also run a weekly youth club, which offers a variety of fun activities, sensory, art, and cooking every Thursday during term time, from 5.30pm-7.00pm, at the 67 Centre in Brighton.
