This project will provide visually impaired people in East Sussex with a two-pronged approach to improve their skills, self-confidence and information levels. It will do this via an 11-day course that will cover confidence, self-esteem, skills and strategies for daily living and cookery and well-being. The training will be assisted by a visually impaired volunteer who may be a past beneficiary. Visually impaired volunteers will also deliver aids and equipment demonstrations to the newly diagnosed.
