Children and Families Service
A child with a visual impairment faces many challenges to developing self-awareness, self-esteem and confidence.
Children and young people with sight loss need to have the chance to do things away from the family, to help develop their independence. We organise a range of age-appropriate social and sporting activities to bring young people together in a supported and stimulating environment.
We provide information and advice for families, and bring parents together to share experiences and learn from each other.
