Managing Daily Life

Sight loss doesn’t have to mean losing your independence. With the right support, tools, and techniques, you can adapt your daily routines so they work for you.

Practical tips and training

We can help you find simple solutions to everyday challenges — from pouring a cup of tea safely, to organising your wardrobe, to identifying food and medication. Our team can visit you at home to talk through what’s working, what’s not, and suggest adaptations to make life easier.

In the kitchen

Cooking can be made safer and more enjoyable with the right equipment and techniques. You might find it useful to use talking scales, liquid level indicators, or utensils with high-contrast markings. We can show you ways to prepare food confidently, such as using tactile markers on appliances or organising cupboards by category.

Around the home

Changes like increasing lighting, adding contrast strips to steps, or reorganising spaces can make a big difference. We can also advise on labelling systems so you can easily identify important documents, clothing, or household products.

Getting out and about

If you want to feel more confident travelling independently, we can arrange mobility training to help you navigate your neighbourhood, use public transport, or get to the shops.

We’re here for you

Our support is shaped around your lifestyle and your goals - whether that’s looking after your home, enjoying hobbies, or getting back into work.
