Useful Vision is a registered charity providing positive opportunities and jam-packed events for visually impaired children around the North East. We work with children and their families to give them the support they need to flourish.
Our Mission is to provide accessible, positive opportunities and activities to visually impaired children and their families throughout the North East region. We enable children to learn new skills and make new friends – reducing social isolation through increased confidence and self-esteem.
About Useful VisionWe offer practical advice and emotional support for children, siblings and families from early years through to young adulthood.
We’ve collected some useful resources to provide help, assistance, and guidance for visually impaired children and their families.
ResourcesOur huge range of imaginative activities, relaxed family events and skills workshops are designed to meet the needs of visually impaired children of all ages and abilities. Here’s what is coming up:
