Dorset Blind Association

March 2019

A big thank you to the Dorset Blind Association who attended the recent meeting of Ringwood and Fordingbridge Club for the Blind in order to demonstrate a range of items that can help make living with sight loss easier. Some of the equipment included talking clocks and a nice range of ladies and gents talking watches. They also had LED touch lights, magnifiers and simple little "bump ons" which can be attached to kitchen appliances such as microwaves and washing machines to help identify timers and programmes. Members of the club were able to examine different items and chat about what they might find useful. Both Dorset Blind Association and the Club for the Blind provide services and support to blind and partially sighted people in the local area.
