4SIGHT â West Sussex Association for the Blind - was
4SIGHT – West Sussex Association for the Blind - was established in 1921 to support blind and partially sighted people in West Sussex. We now support over 2,000 members and provide people with a wide range of practical support solutions to help them remain independent following sight loss. We do this work largely thanks to the help of over 500 volunteers. Everything we do is to ensure that visually impaired people are able to access the information, advice, equipment, skills and services needed to continue to live independently after sight loss, build confidence and to participate actively in their community and family lives. Our work is largely self-funded, through donations, community events, our own commercial activities including charity shops, and the support of trusts, foundations and local authorities. Services we can provide include: • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Information and Advice on sight loss Equipment advice and displays at our Resource Centres in Bognor Regis and Shoreham by Sea Accessible media and Transcription Services – Braille, CD, tapes and other electronic formats Computing and Technology support services Newsletters in various formats Home Visitors / Befrienders Counselling Services (Shoreham) Audio Library – CD and Tape Health and Wellbeing Services Kitchen Skills sessions (Bognor Regis) Low Vision Assessments Sight Care Advisors - Worthing and St Richards Hospitals Equipment Loan & Purchase Puzzle, Crossword & Sudoku Service Employment Advice Clubs – over 40 different clubs and activity groups across the county Diverse Communities & Carers Support group Website: www.4sight.org.uk Charity No: 1075447 Company No: 3740647 4SIGHT Contact Details BOGNOR REGIS RESOURCE & CHARITY HQ 4SIGHT Bradbury Centre 36 Victoria Drive, Bognor Regis, West Sussex, PO21 2TE Main Tel: 01243 828 555 Fax: 01243 838 003 Email: [email protected] SHOREHAM RESOURCE CENTRE East Wing Civic Centre, Ham Road, Shoreham-by-Sea, West Sussex, BN43 6PA Main Tel: 01273 454 343 Email: [email protected] SIGHT CARE ADVISOR SERVICE 4SIGHT - Worthing Hospital Eye Clinic Direct Number: 01903 285 281 SIGHT CARE ADVISOR SERVICE 4SIGHT - St Richard’s Hospital Eye Clinic Tel: 01243 788 122 ext. 3515 4SIGHT BOGNOR REGIS CHARITY SHOP Unit 6, The Arcade, High Street, Bognor Regis, West Sussex, PO21 1LL Tel: 01243 861 776
