During Volunteers’ Week, we want to say a huge thank you to our amazing volunteers. We are so grateful for the time, care, and dedication you give to supporting local people with sight loss.

"I truly believe all of our volunteers are amazing. The support you give to both our service users and our team means so much. Thank you for everything you do – it’s a real pleasure working with such a lovely group of people." - Zoe, Senior Volunteer Coordinator

This week and always, we are incredibly grateful for your support and proud to celebrate everything you do. Thank you!

Thank you so much to the City of Cambridge Symphony Orchestra for supporting CamSight at their wonderful concert last Saturday. It was a pleasure to speak with audience members and musicians at our foyer stand, where many people tried our simulation glasses and learned more about the impact of sight loss and how we can help.

Thank you to everyone who donated on the night and to those who purchased tickets in support of CamSight. Your support truly makes a difference.

It was wonderful to join the Veterans Group in Wisbech last week at the Salvation Army Community Centre.

Our team shared information about CamSight’s services and demonstrated equipment, including audiobooks and audio players. It was lovely to speak with the group, including some existing service users, and explore how we can support them.

Thank you to the Veterans Group for such a warm welcome.
