Sight for Surrey Open Day!
Would you like to learn how to confidently and safely guide a blind person or understand more about being Deaf, why Deaf is written with a capital D and learn some basic British Sign Language? Then come down to the Sight for Surrey Open Day on Wednesday 4th May, as we are throwing open our doors and welcoming everyone from the local community to meet our teams, find out about our services and have some coffee, cake and celebrate our Centenary!
