Services Offered: Parent Support Network

We now run a parent support network for parents & carers of children who are blind or partially sighted. The idea of the group is to provide a safe environment in which parents and carers can meet informally with other parents and discuss issues around children and sight loss, swapping advice and offering support. At each meeting we also have a visiting speaker who will chating about relevant topical issues. The meetings are very informal and friendly, with refreshments and our own creche facilities for children and siblings. The group meets on the 2nd Tuesday of each month at the Cedar School Redbridge Lane Southampton, SO16 0NX at 4.30pm. For a programme of forthcoming dates, check out our Event Bulletin.
