Our fundraising projects
Fundraising is really important to us. We are really proud of the services we deliver for those with a visual impairment and multiple disabilities, including grant aid for medical research that will cure eye conditions in the future. However we never forget that we are only able to continue to do this thanks to the continued support and generosity from individuals, companies and trusts. If you think you can help with any of our fundraising projects please do call us on 0131 229 1456 and ask for Colleen Watt.
