Focus Groups for staff who work with older people with sight loss

Researchers at Cardiff University are looking for staff who work with older people with sight loss in Wales to take part in some focus groups for the Access to a Sustainable, whole System pathway for older people with vISion impairmenT (ASSIST) project, which is looking at the pathways to support older people with sight loss in navigating and accessing the support that is available to them.
