Groups run by parents

We have listed some groups that have been set up and run by parents of blind or partially sighted children. 

• Blind Mums Connect - yahoo group links visually impaired mums from all over the UK, so they can share information and support one another. For membership or associate membership forms and an eZine, contact [email protected] - soon you could be chatting to other parents over Skype.
• Facebook - blind mums connect - keeps you in touch with support for parents with sight loss. You can also tweet @blindmums to get in touch. Download a blind mums connect services leaflet.
