Children's Group

Our Families' Support Co-ordinator organises social and sporting events for over 100 children and their families. Parents support groups meet regularly at various locations throughout the county and a twice yearly Activities Newsletter is published, featuring information on activities suitable for visually impaired youngsters.

All the children helped by the BCBS have a serious diagnosed eye condition. 75% have additional special needs including profound developmental delay, autism, cerebral palsy, hearing impairment, communication difficulties or epilepsy.
