Standard Life has been an incredibly generous supporter of RNIB since 2002.
The partnership has taken numerous forms, and this year Standard Life has made a donation which will be directed towards three employment projects.
This will help us in assisting the 67% of blind and partially sighted people who are unemployed to secure employment.
We are extremely grateful to Standard Life for their ongoing generosity to RNIB and blind and partially sighted people.
This year's donation will support us in the development of:
-
A 12 month employment series on Insight Radio covering the most relevant topics related to the employment of blind and partially sighted people
-
An online employment toolkit for SME's
-
Three employment information brochures specific to the areas of England, Northern Ireland and Wales (the Scottish edition is already in circulation)
Previous support from Standard Life has included:
-
A one year Charity of the Year partnership in 2002 which funded the employment of two Volunteer Development Managers and services for older people in Scotland
-
Three years sponsorship of RNIB's accessible website audit service 2001 to 2004
-
Sponsorship of categories in RNIB's 'Simply the Best' Awards
-
Sponsorship of RNIB Scotland's Benefits Helpline since 2007
