4Sight Vision Support

4Sight Vision Support For over 100 years, we have supported blind and sight impaired people across West Sussex. Whoever they are, whatever they do, wherever they find themselves.

4Sight Vision Support was established in 1921 to support blind and partially sighted people in West Sussex. We now support over 2,000 members and provide over 5,000 people with a wide range of practical support solutions to help them remain independent following sight loss. Our main aim at 4Sight Vision Support is to improve the lives of blind and partially sighted people with sight loss. We support in many different ways though services, visits, information, guidance, advocacy and support. Our aims are to enable people to:

Adjust to sight loss
Make the best use of low vision
Combat social isolation
Access appropriate information and advice
Maintain independence
Participate actively in their communities and family life
Access facilities and open spaces, across town and country
Access high quality personal social care and clinical services, with appropriate and timely choices
Influence service design, provision, commissioning and planning
Make informed choices about their own health and wellbeing

4Sight Vision Support supports these aims by providing valuable and much needed services, enabling blind and partially sighted people to remain as independent as possible.

Accessible theatre – our clients’ experience

Clients Budgie and Jodie shared their experience at Chichester Festival Theatre, where they joined a Touch Tour and used audio description during a performance.
Budgie said: "The Touch Tour made a huge difference. I could visualise the play through touching the props and costumes. It kept me engaged throughout."
His advice: "Listen to the audio introduction before the show – it sets the scene and helps you follow the story. The staff were great, and I’ll definitely go again."

Jodie also found the Touch Tour helpful: "It gave me a clear sense of the stage layout and props. Everything was explained in a friendly, personal way."

For accessibility information at other venues, check their websites or give them a call.

Thousands of people in Sussex provide vital unpaid support to someone who could not cope without them.
But it’s really important if you are a carer, to take time to look after your health and wellbeing.
Thursday 20 November was Carers’ Rights Day and the theme was ‘know your rights, use your rights’. Organisations across Sussex are highlighting support that is available to unpaid carers locally.
Did you know, you have the right to:
• Request a carers’ assessment – if you’re over 18 and provide regular unpaid care for someone, you can ask for a carers assessment to see what support might be available to you.
• Ask your GP practice to identify you as a carer on your patient record – the benefit of this is that you may then fall into a priority group for vaccines or other public health campaigns.
• Have a free flu jab if you are in receipt of carer’s allowance or are the main carer for an older or disabled person.
Find local information and support for your caring role by connecting with organisations in your area:

• West Sussex – Carers Support West Sussex – call 0300 028 8888
• East Sussex – Care for the Carers East Sussex – call 01323 738390
• Brighton and Hove – Carers Centre – call 01273 746 222

Image has the following text with an illustration of a cup of tea: Stay well this winter, if you are a carer, make sure you take time to look after yourself
