Southend Blind Welfare Organisation

In 2018, Southend Blind Welfare Organisation celebrated its Diamond Jubilee; with the renaming of the community services division of the charity to Southend in Sight and a refurbishment of the centre to offer better facilities and accessibility. Over 60 years the organisation has helped countless people in the borough of Southend, live independent, fulfilling and active lives whilst living with sight loss. The charity has a proud history. It has always been and remains a local, independent charity, offering advice, social activities and practical help through clubs, hospital liaison and a team of volunteers who work tirelessly to make people’s experience of sight loss as straightforward and stress free as possible.
