On Sunday 21st November SeeAbility featured in the BBC’s Lifeline Appeal!

The Bradford Visual Function Box (BVFB) was developed in response to our experience of testing children with complex needs who find it difficult to engage with traditional tests. It’s simple, quick, portable and adaptable for use with children and adults with a wide range of abilities.

It’s time for all people with learning disabilities to get the eye care they need, which can help them achieve their potential and ambitions. This is the world that I want to live in where we all have equality and, in this case, an equal right to sight. - Read our new blog by CEO Lisa Hopkins

To mark World Sight Day and to encourage people across the country to get their eyes tested, IAPB Global Ambassador Her Royal Highness, The Countess of Wessex, visited Perseid School in London, to see children having their eyes tested by our eye care team.

As an Influencer here at SeeAbility, one of Emily Stewart’s personal priorities is to ensure everybody’s voice is heard. Emily got involved with #TheBigConversation, in the hopes that sharing her experience of living with a disability would inspire others to think from multiple perspectives, in addition to their own.

When Eye Care Champion Rebecca Lunness witnessed Captain Sir Thomas Moore complete 100 laps of his garden to raise an overwhelming amount of money for the NHS, she felt encouraged to get involved with the growing movement he had started.

SeeAbility has joined with other organisations to shine a light on low pay in social care through the #BetterPay4SocialCare campaign.

Emily offers insight into her experiences of relationships and reflects on what others can do to improve their relationships.
