For nearly a century, we’ve been helping Dorset people with visual difficulties live full, active and happy lives. We’re proud to now help more than 1,000 people every month.
We are only able to do the fantastic work we do thanks to the help of people like you!
We don’t receive any funding from the government or the RNIB – instead we rely 100% on fundraising and donations. Would you like to help?
There loads of different ways you can volunteer, from driving to supervising at one of our events.
We have lots of community fundraising initiatives you can get involved with.
