The weekend aims to bring together young people who are blind or partially sighted in a relaxed and informal setting so that they can share experiences, offer and receive support, provide advice and guidance to each other as well as to have fun!

The weekend will include exploring sight loss, independent living skills, mobility, mindfulness and social events to help develop independence for transition to post school placement or employment.

There is no charge for this weekend, all accommodation, activities, meals and drinks are included. There is no transport included, but if this is likely to be a problem please contact us.
