    Supporting People With Sight Loss Since 1922

    Every Day, People With Sight Loss Face Dangerous Situations

    Last year, in over a quarter of local councils across England, people had been waiting for vision rehabilitation assessment and support for more than 12 months. People have been waiting over a year for the support they need to get around safely, return to work and live independently.

    This is an urgent situation requiring immediate support
