Sight Loss Councils

Advocating for blind and partially sighted people

Sight Loss Councils are led by blind and partially sighted members. We tackle local issues and work with businesses and service providers to improve the accessibility of their services.

Get involved in a vision for change

We asked some of our members, why they joined, what they have got involved in and why other blind and partially sighted people should consider joining Sight Loss Councils in their areas.  Come join us.
