Living with Sight Loss

London Vision has been working in partnership with RNIB to deliver Living with Sight Loss courses across London. Earlier in 2020 year we hosted successful groups in Merton and St Thomas’s Hospital. Sadly, we are no longer offering face to face courses this year due to COVID-19 and the need to practise social distancing. 

We are currently offering bite size chunks of the Living with Sight Loss course on the phone or via the internet - scroll down to the bottom of the page or find out more information here. The sessions will be short and the numbers low so everyone will have time to talk. If you would like to learn more send us an e-mail on [email protected] or call on: 0203 761 3651. 

Alternatively, RNIB are delivering Living with Sight Loss courses over the phone; you can find out much more by calling RNIB’s Helpline on 0303 1239999. The helpline team will also be able to tell you about the many other telephone based services RNIB offer. If you are worried about your vision during the pandemic, check out this advice from RNIB.
