Supporting People Services

Helping People with Sight Loss Stay Independent at Home

At Sight Cymru, we’re committed to helping people with sight loss live safely, confidently, and independently — especially in their own homes. Our Supporting People service offers tailored, one-to-one support that focuses on what matters most to you.

We provide practical help, advice, and encouragement to overcome the daily challenges that sight loss can bring. Our goal is to help you maintain your independence, improve your wellbeing, and stay connected to your community.

What We Can Support You With

  • Managing money, budgeting, and accessing the right benefits

  • Staying safe at home — including home safety checks and repairs

  • Understanding and keeping to your tenancy or housing agreements

  • Attending appointments and accessing health, education, or employment services

  • Planning healthy meals and exploring shopping or delivery options

  • Using equipment, gadgets, or low vision aids effectively

  • Building confidence, developing life skills, and reducing isolation

  • Connecting with other services or local groups

  • Getting help with forms, applications, and concessions like Blue Badges or TV licences

Together, we’ll create a personalised support plan based on your needs and goals.
