A photograph of our resource centreOur Resource Centre stocks hundreds of daily living aids for visually impaired people. Welfare staff are on hand five days a week to recommend and demonstrate a large variety of equipment, from simple talking clocks right up to electronic reading aids. Whatever the need, we use our equipment and our knowledge to minimise the destructive impact of sight loss, so that our clients can live the fullest lives available to them.

Also at our centre we have kitchen equipment that shows how people with low vision can organise a kitchen. It is stocked with a wide range of innovative equipment to help clients cook and work in their kitchen, safely. Our Resource Centre has a wide variety of products available to buy there and then, all designed to help sight impaired people perform everyday tasks more easily. These include:

• Talking Clocks and Watches

• Talking Microwaves and Scales

• The latest DAB radio

• Talking mobile phone

• Signature Guides

techniques we have on offer at our Sight Advisory
Centre is to come and see us. We may be able to
help in ways that you never imagined possible.
