Thrive (the charity which encourages
disabled people to enjoy gardening) have various publications about gardening for people with sight loss which can be purchased via their website. Topics covered include growing food and growing in containers.
This good practice guide contains information for any project, community resource or service
looking to support people with sight loss to become digitally engaged and highlights some
of the best practice, information, resources and support available.
Our findings have shown a lack of available support for blind and partially sighted students in post-16 settings. The SEND
review provides the Government with the perfect opportunity to review this and to ensure that we have a post-16 education provision and support that enables blind and partially sighted people to have equal access to education.
This guide gives you an introduction to each of the
glaucomas, their causes and their treatment, so that you can better understand your own situation, to help you retain useful sight for life.
Description, risks, types, management, and coping strategies for
glaucoma.
Although most relatives of people diagnosed with
glaucoma will not have the condition, if you have a close blood relative (brother, sister, parent,
child) with glaucoma you are at an increased risk of developing the condition. This leaflet is for your relatives so that, if they have the condition, it can be identified as early as possible when treatment is most effective.
This booklet has been written to give you an introduction to
glaucoma in babies and
children. It is intended to help you understand the conditions and the reasons for treatment to help ensure that your child retains useful sight for life.
Anecdotal evidence suggests that some young visually
impaired (
VI) people may have a good level of education
but lack independence and life skills needed to move
onto the next phase of their lives. Reports from some
individuals reflect that there is a lack of information about
services and entitlements, lack of skills
training and lack
of support. This report presents a picture of how VI specialist services are addressing the mobility, independent living and social skills needs of
children and
young people. It maps
habilitation, specialist
social work and
LEA support across Wales.
These Guidelines are written for designers of information and communication
technology (ICT) and provide
advice and recommendations on accessibility issues for all types of
disabilities.
