Story

British Blind Sport's mission is to make sport and physical activity accessible for all blind and partially sighted people in the UK.

Sport can transform lives. Being physically active empowers people and has so many benefits. Regular physical activity is not only about good physical health, it also boosts confidence, increases resilience and builds friendships which all add up to better health and wellbeing.

In the UK, just 12% of people with sight loss regularly take part in sport and physical activity. A further 64% of people with sight loss want to take part but experience barriers that stop them.

BBS is a small and ambitious charity and when you donate, you will make a difference by helping BBS to provide more services that will help more people with sight loss than ever before.
