Ever wondered how you could make your community group more accessible and welcoming to people with sight loss? Lisburn & Castlereagh City Council is delighted to host a free Introduction to Sighted Guide session delivered by Guide Dogs NI.

This engaging session will provide practical tips on how to safely and confidently support someone with sight loss, while also increasing understanding of the everyday challenges blind and partially sighted people can face.
