If you are visually impaired or care for someone with sight impairment you'll want to know about this....
The Northampton Association for the Blind runs a mobile unit to support visually impaired people and their carers.
The Mobile Unit Service first began in 1994 and has been very successful over the years. It allows us to provide information and support to the very many visually impaired people and their carers within the community. We visit numerous locations throughout Northamptonshire on a regular basis, parking in Town Centres, Supermarket Car Parks and outside Medical Centres.
The vehicle is run by Fred Cannon and is fitted out to display a wide range of everyday living aids and innovative gadgets specifically designed to make life easier for visually impaired people. All manner of devices care available, at reasonable prices, such as talking clocks and watches, kitchen equipment, reading and writing aids, big button telephones etc. Fred can also provide information and sympathetic advice on all manner of sight loss concerns.
The unit will be in your area on the dates shown below. If you know of any visually impaired person or their carer who might benefit by visiting the mobile unit please notify them. Further information can be obtained by telephoning 01604 719193
Next Visits: Daventry Thursday October 21st 10.00am-2.00pm , Thursday December 16th 10.00am - 2.00pm
