Hartlepool Vision Support has been successfully managed for over hundred years. We have 500 clients on our database. We offer a Home Visiting Service, our centre houses a resource centre with a wide range of specialist and practical equipment, for our entire community. Demonstrations are given and items can be tried out before they are purchased giving people choice and equipment to suit their needs (some items are available for home loan). There are Low-Vision equipment with CCTV and handheld scanners both pieces of equipment can assist some visually impaired who have retained some useful vision to read print. We also offer centre-based activities including cookery and daily living skills, social, macular group, book club and assistive technology sessions where we hold all the most up to date equipment. We operate a self-referral system where people with sight loss who do not fit the criteria for registration can source information and equipment, we also refer service users for Low-Vision assessments. We run additional projects with health services, which tackle isolation for visually impaired people in Hartlepool that runs alongside our existing contracts with the Hartlepool borough council.

Story

I am taking part in a charity boxing event called Ultra White Collar Boxing to raise money for Hartlepool Vision Support.

Hartlepool Vision Support has been helping those with sight loss and visual impairment in our community.

Hartlepool Vision Support gather a passionate team of staff and volunteers and fostered a caring and encouraging community. Their goal is to offer support, advice, and provide a wide range of services to allow everyone to maintain their independence and live their life, their way.

I want to raise money for this particular charity because a number of my family members have sight loss and visual impairment.

Any donation no matter how small will help support this independent, self-funded charity, and to keep their services running.
