Sight loss can be a scary place to be. It can make us feel vulnerable and isolated.
But it needn't be like that. With the right support, life can be very different.
Which is where we come in.
What we do
Community events
You can get involved in our fortnightly and monthly events for people, and parents of children, with visual impairment.
Accommodation for children
We provide supported residential care for blind and partially sighted children and young people, including those with additional disabilities and health needs, at our Royal Blind School campus in Edinburgh.
Specialist care and accommodation for adults
Young adults with visual impairment and additional complex needs are cared for at our two Edinburgh homes.
Education
We are the specialists that parents and our partners can trust to provide the best learning and education opportunities for children and young people who are blind or partially sighted.
Care
Sometimes sight loss can make it difficult to live independently - especially when combined with other disabilities and health needs. Sight Scotland is committed to providing extraordinary specialist care, every day.
