How we make a difference

Sight is the sense people fear losing the most. Yet 1 in 12 people living in London are at risk of losing their sight – and this figure is set to increase.

For those already living with sight loss, London is not accessible. Blind and partially sighted people face isolation, poverty, discrimination and exclusion.It doesn’t have to be this way.

We promote positive eye-health to ensure losing your sight is something you never have to face. And we support and connect London’s best services and activities for blind and partially sighted people so everyone living with sight loss is fully included in our society.

Help us to improve the lives of people facing and living with sight loss, now and for the future.

2,400 people receive our direct support every month
