Events
Throughout the year we run events to engage people in our work and to support the wider sight loss sector by sharing best practice and knowledge. We aim to raise awareness of the issues surrounding sight loss through engaging and informative events with high profile speakers. Our training cover topics such as effective fundraising, measuring impact, marketing and communications, governance and safeguarding.
