Vision Foundation (previously The Greater London Fund for the Blind)

The Vision Foundation raises vital funds to support a wide range of services for people with sight loss – delivered at the local level by grantee charities. With around 200,000 people impacted by sight loss in London, the requests for specialist support assistance are growing. For too many of these individuals, sight loss brings isolation and a lack of independence. The Vision Foundation focuses on transforming lives and saving sight by working in partnership with others to deliver projects which inform, empower, and include blind and partially sighted people.
