New to RNIB Scotland or Community Connections and want to find out more? You can join a four-week programme to hear about all the support and services RNIB Scotland has to offer and meet new people. Group calls begin in February. They will last one hour and will be held once a week for a four-week period. If you would like to take part please contact [email protected] or phone 07849 307507.
Information and local support are vital at times like these, so we are boosting our services to meet a record demand. Please help us ensure blind and partially sighted people do not face these challenges on their own.
