SIGHT SUPPORT RYEDALE

            To highlight the range of services and support available for blind and sight impaired people living in Ryedale, Sight Support Ryedale (formally Ryedale In-Touch) are hosting an open day in Malton on Saturday 11th June. Visitors will be able to view the new office, resource and information centre based in Yorkersgate.

            This will provide an ideal opportunity to meet staff and volunteers, to chat with members and hear about the regular activities, social events and excursions organised by Sight Support. People concerned about the loss of independence and an active lifestyle owing to their own sight problems, or those of relatives and friends, will be able to have their questions answered and find reassurance that support, understanding and companionship are available locally. A range of aids to enhance the lives of those affected by a sight impairment will also be on show.

            If you would like to find out more about the support that Sight Support Ryedale can offer, why not drop in between 10.00am and 2.00pm. Volunteers and members will be available in the Market Square to answer questions and provide directions to our offices at 39 Yorkersgate, Malton. If you are considering volunteering for a local charity, we would be very pleased to see you too, so why not come along and find out more about what’s involved. We look forward to seeing you on the 11th.
