Vision: Peer-led Support Group (online)


Jun 5

Vision is a peer-led drop-in support group that runs on a 12-week cycle of topics based on Hannah Fairbairn’s 2019 book, “When You Can't Believe Your Eyes: Vision Loss and Personal Recovery”. On the first and third Mondays of the month, we meet to discuss different topics and share our experiences, thoughts, and knowledge. We are people with similar experiences who genuinely want to support one another in all aspects of living independently with our changing vision.

Reading is not required. However, if you would like topic details beyond our discussions, please refer to the book which is available on the National Library Service Braille and Audio Recoding Download (BARD) at book number: DBC11619.
