One Place Sight Support Group
Sight Support Group Coffee Mornings
Launched in August 2023, our Sight Support Group Coffee Mornings provide a welcoming space for visually impaired individuals living in North East London.
The Sight Support Group Coffee Mornings take place on the first Tuesday of every month from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm in the York Room of Redbridge Central Library. What began with just 3 or 4 attendees has blossomed into a thriving group of 20 regular members who consistently join us each month.
Each session features a guest speaker who shares valuable information on topics such as public transport, welfare and benefits, health services, assistive technology, and more. These presentations are followed by a Q&A session, allowing members to engage directly with the speakers. In addition to the informative talks, we provide snacks and refreshments, and always ensure there is ample time for socialising and networking – including the occasional off site activity.
The group has attracted participants from various parts of London, all of whom find the meetings both interesting and beneficial. The Sight Support Group Coffee Morning has become a vital platform for fostering connections, sharing knowledge, and building a stronger sense of community among visually impaired individuals.
