York Blind and Partially Sighted Society
York Blind and Partially Sighted Society is a local charity working to help people with sight problems to be independent. Our mission is to advocate, develop and provide services and facilities which enable people who are blind or partially sighted to achieve independence with dignity, in all aspects of life. As many people lose sight in later life, we work with a large number of older people. People also lose sight due to other conditions such as stroke, MS etc.
