Clubs of Wales.
Our mission is to help our students reach their potential, maximise independence and find their place in the world. Our College offers bespoke further education courses for 16-25 year olds from across the UK. We’re able to provide both residential and day placements to
young people who have left the structure of school and are looking for the next step into adulthood.
For
young people at our College, we provide a wide range of specialist support services that help our young people achieve their potential in life. Our vision is to make sure every young person with sight loss and
disability gets access to the same opportunities as others.
We aim to make sure they have the opportunity to learn, grow and develop into independent adults who can live and work independently. Our services encourage independence whilst providing the necessary support and care required.
If you’re in Year 6 and you want to share your thoughts and chat to others who, like you, will be moving to Year 7 in September, then why not join our Moving on Up Group! As well as the other
young people, our Family Practitioners will be on hand to answer your questions and help you work through the move. This Group will give you the chance to talk about your thoughts and feelings, help you work through them and help boost your confidence before September! The sessions are fun, and enjoyable but they will also offer you a safe space to talk to others and to the RSBC’s Family Practitioner.
If your
child is affected by
deafblindness, or if you are a deafblind parent, we can give you and your family specialist support at each stage of your child’s development. We also support schools, colleges, universities and employers to make sure children and
young people who are affected by deafblindness have the best possible start in life.
It may be helpful to find some professional support to help you talk through the impacts of
Usher syndrome on you emotionally and physically, but if you need just to chat with another parent who has been there before and can share their experiences with you, you can contact us.
