Could your organisation become more accessible to people with sight loss?

Thanks to funding from Adur & Worthing Councils' Thriving Together Fund, we're delighted to be offering our Visual Impairment Awareness workshops free of charge to organisations across Adur and Worthing.

Delivered by trainers with lived experience, these interactive sessions give staff practical skills and confidence to better support blind and partially sighted people.

Whether you're a business, GP surgery, café, retailer, charity or community group, small changes can make a huge difference.

If you'd like to make your organisation more welcoming and inclusive, we'd love to hear from you. You can find out more here: https://sswcharity.org.uk/could-your-organisation-become-more-accessible-for-people-with-sight-loss/ or contact Jackie on [email protected] / 01903 235 782

What an incredible day at the Worthing 10k!

A huge congratulations to our amazing Team SSW runners, who together raised a fantastic £641 in support of Sight Support Worthing. We're so grateful for your commitment, enthusiasm and fundraising efforts; you should all be incredibly proud!

The atmosphere throughout the event was brilliant, and we'd like to extend our thanks to Worthing 10K and Runbase for organising such a fantastic community event.

Our runners were also treated to pre- and post-race sports massages, thanks to the generosity of Ingrid Sbongk-Sonderfeld Sports Massage Therapy; a much-appreciated boost before and after the race.

We're also incredibly grateful to our talented photographers, .franchi and GKB Snaps, for capturing so many wonderful moments from the day.

A very special thank you to Broadwater Sports for their valued support of Team SSW, helping to make the day possible.

And finally, a heartfelt thank you to our fantastic army of Sight Support Worthing volunteers. From cheering runners on to helping everything run smoothly behind the scenes, your support is invaluable and so deeply appreciated.

Thank you to everyone who took part, donated, volunteered and cheered us on. Together, you're helping us continue to support local people living with sight loss.

As part of her coaching training, our Wellbeing Services Coordinator, Kate, is looking for members who may be interested in taking part in a short series of free coaching sessions.

Coaching is different from counselling. Rather than focusing on the past, coaching is future-focused and action-oriented. It provides a supportive space to explore what matters to you, identify goals, build confidence, and work towards positive change at your own pace.

Sessions will take place in person at the Centre on Mondays.

If you are interested in finding out more or would like an informal conversation about whether coaching might be right for you, please contact Kate: 01903 235782 / [email protected]
