These workshops will run each month at SRSB and RSS and are aimed at newly registered clients and clients who are experiencing changes in their sight loss. On these two and a half day workshops we cover daily living skills, technology, mobility and the emotional impact of sight loss. We will have guest speakers, including clients who have done the course previously to explain how it helped them, as well as speakers from other organisations. The group is run by a range of SRSB and RSS staff and introduces our charity and how it works to support clients.

The overall outcome is hoped to be lasting relationships, access to both our sites in Sheffield and Rotherham and the wider community, creating social inclusion. Raising confidence through additional information and knowledge, we aim to promote independence and well being in a safe environment.

Comments from past attendees have highlighted a growth in confidence, friendships formed during the course and increased knowledge about how to access support as well as what is available.
