Services mentioning Service Providers
Focal Point UK is a leading private sector provider of vision
rehabilitation (rehab) services to all sector organisations - statutory
service providers such as social services departments, education departments and Employment Services, or their agents acting on their behalf. We also work with
voluntary sector organisations who provide or require vision rehab services and support.
We work with individuals with sight loss to support them to run individual social action projects. This project equips people with sight loss with the skills and confidence to make a change in society. Individuals will learn a suite of skills such as campaigning, marketing and networking and they will be supported to lead their own social change project on a topic that is important to them, for example, improving access in their local community centre or public
transport, creating more recycling facilities in their community or working with a
service provider to make their written materials more accessible.
