Blind Parents UK - Peer support organisation

Blind Parents UK is a peer support organisation for blind and visually impaired parents and parents-to-be which started as a small email group over 10 years ago. Over the past few years it has expanded to include a range of services.

Services are completely free and offered by a team of volunteers, all of whom have a visual impairment themselves. Enquiries from family members, friends and professionals are welcomed, and support is available for first time parents - to - be, through to great grandparents.
