Welcome
Your
local Charity for Blind and Partially Sighted People
Established 1895
Isle of Wight Society for the Blind is an independent local registered charity providing support and rehabilitation services, via advice and equipment, to blind and partially sighted residents of all ages resident on the Isle of Wight enabling them to live as independently as possible.
We also support and provide information to their families, carers and any organisation with an interest and involvement in people with a visual impairment.
Nikki's adventure - her first and last London Marathon!
Nikki fulfilled
an ambition and entered the 2007 Flora Marathon in order to raise vital money
for the Society in memory of her grandmother, the late Alice
Collinson.
Nikki raised a grand total of £1914.79 and is seen here presenting her cheque to Ian Attrill, recently appointed Chairman of Trustees, and Jane Busbridge our Financial Administrator. We would like to thank Nikki for this fantastic effort and wish her well for the future.
