Parents Virtual Hub
Thursday 6th February 2025 7:30pm - 8:30pm
Via Microsoft Teams

Our Virtual Hubs

Our virtual hubs offer a welcoming online space for people affected by sight loss to connect, share experiences, exchange tips, and most importantly, enjoy friendly conversation in a relaxed setting.

For Parents

This Parents Virtual Hub is specifically designed for parents of visually impaired children and young people up to the age of 25. It provides a supportive environment where you can share experiences, exchange tips, and connect with others who understand the unique challenges and joys of your journey.

Led by Volunteers

Our hubs are run by dedicated volunteers who ensure you feel right at home. Meet your host of this virtual hub, Becky, who will guide the sessions and create a friendly and inclusive atmosphere.

“Hi, I’m Becky, Mum to two boys. My eldest was first diagnosed with a vision impairment 8 years ago and we are in the early stages of having another VI confirmed! I’m very excited to be supporting the three partner charities in hosting the parent forum. I am looking forward to (virtually) meeting other parents / carers of children with a VI to share knowledge and experiences.”
