Actively make a difference to the lives of people with sight loss.

Our volunteers make a vital contribution to the work of the charity. They are involved in a wide range of activities that:

  • help us to provide additional services to our users
  • provide support in enabling our users to access services and participate in activities that increase their choices and help them maintain full and active lives
  • provide new perspectives
  • increase our contact with the local community that we serve.

As an organisation we are committed to equality and diversity, and have received many national employer accreditations such as Investors in People and Positive about Disabled People. We welcome volunteers from all sectors of the community.

To support volunteers in their work we have developed a volunteering policy outlining both our expectations of volunteers and our commitments to you in areas such as training and support.
