• Provide visual impairment awareness

• Provide the necessary sight guide training

• Ensure that you have the skills you need in order to engage effectively with service users

• Connect you with a dedicated team member

• Keep in regular contact with you

• Listen and appreciate feedback and ideas

• Offer a variety of opportunities to support BlindAid

Feedback from a BlindAid Volunteer:

“I have found that the professional, dedicated and enthusiastic team at Blind Aid have welcomed me, trained and nurtured me as a Volunteer.

They are open to receiving observations and suggestions. I have had the opportunities to enjoy cultural outings ‘Buddying’ one of their Service users to Tate Britain, Royal Albert Hall and attending their fortnightly Southwark coffee event.

I hope to increase my knowledge of Users requirements and needs to retain and increase their autonomy. An ongoing and rewarding Volunteer experience!”
