Moving Forward with Sight Loss, Online Course- An Introduction to Rehabilitation

Designed to help anyone newly diagnosed with sight loss

Moving Forward with Sight Loss, Online Course- An Introduction to Rehabilitation
Wednesday 1st November 2023 4:00pm - 5:00pm

Being diagnosed with any form of sight loss at any age can be a scary and daunting time for anyone. To help anyone newly diagnosed with sight loss, we have developed a series of talks aimed at introducing the range of equipment, support services and advice available to help overcome the challenges of sight loss.

These sessions are aimed at people who are blind, sight impaired, or family and friends of those who are. Along the way you will discover ways of managing potential problems and hopefully be inspired to go on and achieve everything you wish to.

The sessions will take place via Zoom video and will cover a series of topics relating to all aspects of being blind or sight impaired. Each session will last 1 hour and will be fully interactive. You can attend one or all of the sessions, just pick what seems interesting or useful to you.

The 1st Steps; An Introduction to Rehab

Wednesday 1st November 2023, 4 pm to 5 pm.

Being diagnosed with sight loss can be a confusing time, if you do not know what direction to turn, this session will answer those questions and will provide details of how rehabilitation can support you to regain your independence.

Please contact us to get more information or to receive joining instructions.
