Sight Research UK We are a community of supporters, researchers, patients, healthcare professionals, and fundraisers, working together towards our shared goal: to bring forward the day when sight loss and blindness are a thing of the past. For over 35 years, we have been funding pioneering research into the causes of eye disease, in order to develop better prevention methods and more effective treatments for children and adults. Thanks to the generosity of our donors, we have been able to invest more than £18 million in research projects that are bringing scientists ever closer to answering some of the most fundamental questions about eye health and eye disease. By supporting Sight Research UK, you can help to eradicate sight loss and blindness for good.

National Federation of the Blind of the United Kingdom National Federation of the Blind of the United Kingdom is a self-help organisation of blind and partially sighted people. Any financial assistance which we receive helps us point out to society how the lives of blind and partially sighted people can be happier and more satisfying – a task which the NFBUK, a non-political self-help group and registered charity, has been doing since 1947. We want all blind and partially sighted people to be part of the community where they live. This includes the hundreds of people graduating from our universities each year who are regarded as visually impaired. Our charity trustees are blind, deaf-blind or partially sighted, unpaid volunteers. We willingly join with any individuals or organisations sharing our concerns. We speak with government ministers about improving all aspects of life, benefits and services and with local councils about enabling their sight impaired residents to get out and about more safely in their local areas, town centres and shops.

Deafblind UK Deafblind UK is a national charity supporting people with sight and hearing loss, enabling them to live the lives they want. If you or someone you know is affected by reduced sight and hearing, we can help. At Deafblind UK we dream of a world where people with combined sight and hearing loss can live the life they want. With your help we can make our dream a reality! We rely on our generous supporters to help us make a difference to deafblind people. It is estimated there are nearly 400,000 people living with dual sensory loss in the UK, so we have our work cut out! But every pound we raise brings us a step closer to those who really need us.
