​

Services for the blind and partially sighted
People who are blind, partially sighted or who have a significant sight problem can get help from the Royal Borough of Greenwich. Our team can advise on:

• mobility and travelling - how to travel independently and safely and make best use of their sight and using specialist equipment if necessary

• skills training - provide help to continue living independently by developing strategies and skills to cope with different tasks in the home

• low vision training - find out which types of magnifiers or lighting are useful and how to get the most out of the equipment that is available.

If you are having inpatient treatment at a hospital, please contact your GP as soon as possible following discharge so they can make the appropriate and necessary referrals to support your sensory loss.
