Providing excellent services for blind and partially sighted people: A guide for local authorities Library Item

This guide is designed to help local authorities to provide high quality services that meet the needs of blind and partially sighted adults. To do so, we have used feedback from people with sight loss about their needs to inform what are the key elements of high quality social care. Based on this, the guide shows how provision of effective services for blind and partially sighted adults plays a critical role for local authorities in meeting social care and other public policy objectives.
