New social group for those with sensory loss

South Lincolnshire Blind Society is holding a new Sleaford Social '˜eyes' Club to give those with sensory loss friendship and support.

The group aims to help people to get together to meet others who also have some degree of sensory loss, along with their families and carers.

A spokesman for the group said: “At the group you will find a very warm welcome and the opportunity to talk to others, make new friends, listen to guest speakers, and learn about some of the latest gadgets to help you make the most of your sensory loss. You will be able to find out about additional services and support available to help you to live independently.”
