Beyond sight loss is a Charity for the visually impaired and blind community in the tower hamlets area. We rely heavily on the help of volunteers to help guide our blind/visually impaired groups on outings and activities. This is a great opportunity for anyone who wants to make a difference and offer support to others. Group meetings are held on the second Thursday of each month from 1pm till 4pm. These meetings are where we share information and socialise. It’s a casual safe space with a lot of lovely people. It would be amazing to have caring people volunteer for a few hours of their time to help vulnerable people enjoy their day. We have two group outings at least per month, usually on the last Thursday of each month. Activities typically include visits to museums, parks, theatre and beach trips. We are also open to ideas from volunteers and members on any sort of outings, so there are lots of new things to do. We greatly appreciate any help.
