Who we are
We are a not-for-profit company with charitable aims. Being in the third sector means we are dedicated to creating social value rather than pursuing financial profit.
All three directors work in the sight-impaired field and have a significant understanding of the needs of those affected by sight impairments. With years of experience, they can carefully plan and develop the services alongside our members, working passionately to tackle the issues faced by people with sight impairments.
We do not receive any statutory funding and work tirelessly to gain grants to support our work. We can sell services and commit to reinvesting any profits into achieving our social objectives. Ours are to support children, young people and their families, especially through not exclusively those with sight impairment issues to improve their quality of life through the provision of valuable skills training, activities and events so that they can become more independent and self-aware on their life’s journey.
We are accountable to any funder who gives us grants and to any contractor or person who may buy our services. All directors have an extemporary track record in the field of sight-impairment, and all carry an Enhanced DBS.
We are members of national networks and receive up-to-date information by being part of professional networks. promoting ‘good governance and practices’.
We engage with sight-impaired children and young people and their families who live in the North East. The areas we cover include Northumberland, Tyne & Wear, Co. Durham, and Tees Valley.
