Situation
86% of people fear losing their sight over all other senses. Imagine how challenging life could be with not only sight loss, but other disabilities too. Every day tasks such as cooking, eating, walking would all require a different, specialist approach. Demand for our specialist therapies is growing. Medical developments mean that more people with profound disabilities are surviving, placing a strain on already under resourced NHS Speech and Language and Sight Loss provision.
Solution
With your help, we'll fund 1,600 hours of one to one specialist support and therapies from SeeAbility's dedicated professionals. Our team of 8 Sight Loss practitioners, 3 Speech and Language therapists and a Physiotherapist will provide intensive, consistent and timely support to teach the skills to overcome the challenges of everyday life. Please take a look at our short film on this page which illustrates the difference our specialist support makes.
