National Blind Children’s Society: Shared goals, no barriers
Mission:
National Blind Children’s Society’s mission is to enable children who are blind and partially sighted to achieve their educational and recreational goals.
Vision:
Our vision is a world where blind and partially sighted children have equal access to education which is adequately supported with sources of information, provided in a suitable format for their needs, and where there are no barriers to sport and recreational activities.
We do all this with the ultimate aim that every child with visual impairment will be able to achieve their full potential during childhood and teenage years, and to enjoy varied and purposeful lives as adults.
A child or young person is considered to have a visual impairment if he or she has an eye condition that cannot be fully corrected by wearing glasses.
There are an estimated 24,000 visually impaired children in the UK, many with additional needs.
