Through the Need to Talk (NTT) project, sight loss charities RNIB and Fighting Blindness are working together to support people of all ages, as well as family and friends, to access the emotional and practical support they need to adapt to life with sight loss.
We currently have very short waiting times for our free counselling service, and have introduced a new ‘Focus on Coronavirus’ telephone and online course helping people through this still very challenging time.
Read on in our newsletter attached to hear more from our beneficiaries, and please do circulate with anyone you think would be interested in this service helping people work towards ‘Living Well with Sight Loss’.
