The Sight Loss Information Line is a National Lottery funded project in partnership with Vision Support, Cheshire West & Chester Council, East Cheshire Eye Society, Cheshire East Council and the NHS. It is there to provide information, support and guidance at a time when those who want it need it most.
Our friendly advisors will provide information over the phone and in person, send out bespoke information packs, and signpost to other services and charities to ensure that people feel confident to remain independent, have a comprehensive understanding of their condition and next steps, and combat potential isolation.
Packs contain standardised information including:
- Contact details for ECLOs across Cheshire, relevant charities, community transport and relevant national organisations.
- An explanation of and the benefits of registering for a Certificate of Vision Impairment.
- Information about various social groups.
And any bespoke information requested by the individual calling.
For any enquiries, please call 01244 478910 and speak to one of our advisors. The line is open Monday – Thursday 9am – 5pm and Friday 9am – 4.30pm.
