VICTA is a small but national charity in the UK that empowers children and young adults who are blind or partially sighted and their families. Aware that feelings of isolation and loneliness are dominant within the world of visual impairment, VICTA use activity-based learning as a positive setting for social interaction. For the blind and partially sighted young people, involvement in team-based activities can be positively associated with social acceptance and a sense of belonging, especially where such involvement is characterised by positive coaching, progressive skill development and peer support. VICTA work hard to help young people question limiting presumptions they might have, helping them to view themselves and their potential in a new way. VICTA want them to be able to make a difference to their own lives.

Story

I first entered the London Marathon in 2018 thinking it would be a one off, however after everything that has happened over the last few years with the pandemic and the hard and tough times everyone has been through I have decided to stop wallowing and to give it another go and so again, find myself running for a wonderful small charity called VICTA. 

I am trying to raise as much money as I can for them. They are a small but national charity in the UK that empowers children and young adults who are blind or partially sighted and their families. VICTA work hard to help young people question limiting presumptions they might have, helping them to view themselves and their potential in a new way. VICTA want them to be able to make a difference to their own lives.
