Our organisation

We make a real difference every day...

  • Led by the needs of blind and partially sighted people.
  • We're building on our pioneering charitable heritage.
  • And with a clear direction and a stronger organisation.
  • We're now poised to make an even bigger difference.

But we've got so much more to do…

  • It's outrageous that people are needlessly losing their sight.
  • And that people with sight loss aren't getting support to be independent.
  • It's scandalous that people are excluded from education, jobs and income.
  • And cut off from information and new technology.

Now's the time for really ambitious goals…

  • We'll focus our energies on ending isolation.
  • By stopping people losing their sight unnecessarily.
  • Supporting people to lead independent lives.
  • And by making society a more inclusive place for blind and partially sighted people.

But we can't achieve them on our own…

  • Through our leadership of the UK Vision strategy.
  • We'll strengthen partnerships here and internationally.
  • Influence others to give our cause a higher priority.
  • And ensure support is there for everyone who needs it.

With everyone playing their part…

  • Delivering our goals with confidence, energy and commitment.
  • Empowering people to support others through their own experiences.
  • Passionately championing awareness and understanding of sight loss.
  • And inspiring our supporters to give and help us do even more.

We can end the isolation people face

  • Driven by the needs of our members and customers.
  • We'll lead the way in building an inclusive society.
  • Where blind and partially sighted people are respected, valued and independent.
  • And where no-one loses their sight unnecessarily.

RNIB's Ambition stories

We have four videos featuring people explaining how sight loss has affected their lives and how RNIB has supported them. These real-life examples bring our Ambition to life and help to illustrate the impact RNIB has on people's lives.
