How can we help?

Vision impairment can present barriers which seem difficult to overcome. We are here to support you to live independently and well.

Vision Support Officers

Our Vision Support Officers (VSOs) are here to provide practical help, advice, and guidance to anyone living with sight loss.

Assistive Technology

At Vision Support Barrow and District, we believe that the right technology can make everyday life easier, safer and more enjoyable for people living with sight loss.

Social Groups

Staying connected, active, and social is an important part of living well with sight loss. That’s why we run a variety of groups and activities throughout the week, month, and year.

Our mission

Our Mission is to support visually impaired people throughout all stages of life. We are dedicated in our work, focusing on inclusivity, and treating everyone fairly and equally.
