Story

Living in isolation with no or low vision is distressing and frightening. Due to coronavirus Cam Sight has been forced to suspend its home visits, groups, activities, one-one volunteer befriending. We immediately reacted and have changed the way we work. We are carrying out a ring-a-round service to continue supporting people in their own homes. Client's are being contacted via the phone to provide support at this critical time, to help people before they reach crisis point. We are offering information and advice by telephone, email or via our website. We are assisting with the purchase of equipment including talking clocks and watches, lighting, large and tactile playing cards, large button phones. We are providing IT advice and support for a range of technologies. The demand for our vital service is increasing rapidly. Please help us be there for blind and partially sighted people who desperately need us during this pandemic.
