Moving Forward with Sight Loss, Online Course – Everyday Smart Access

A series of talks aimed at those newly diagnosed with sight loss.

Moving Forward with Sight Loss, Online Course – Everyday Smart Access
Wednesday 29th November 2023 4:00pm - 5:00pm
Via Zoom

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.

Everyday Smart Access

Wednesday 29th November 2023, 4.00 – 5.00 pm.

The solutions you need may already be in your pocket or sat on your desk, but you simply are not aware of what they are. Find out more as we discuss in-built access on everyday devices you might already have or that are inexpensive to purchase. This session will also cover apps that can be used for everyday accessibility and other useful tools.

If you would like any further information or would like to book your place on the course, please call us on 0117 322 4885 or email marc.gulwell@sightsupportwest.org.uk
