and Families |
Our
Children’s Department
currently supports over 100 children from all over Berkshire (including
Reading) aged from birth to 18 years, all
of whom suffer from a severe diagnosed eye
condition. 75%
of our younger members also have additional special needs.
Our Families’ Support Co-ordinator provides information and
advice on products and services relating to visual impairment, benefits
and allowances, as well
as organising a comprehensive timetable of sporting, educational and
fun activities, all tailor-made to include tactile and sensory
experiences for the children and their families which are held
regularly throughout the year.
18-30 Social Club
Set
up
recently to support young adults registered with us, this lively group
meets up regularly to enjoy social activities including meals out,
bowling, cinema, concerts and discos. All outings are
supported
by CRB checked volunteers and BCBS staff. If you would like to suggest
an activity, please contact us at 0118 987 2803.
