Our Equipment Advisor offers advice on an extensive range of products, all designed to help people with sight loss maintain their independence. Robert McCann, our Equipment Advisor, is himself visually impaired and can advise on much of the equipment from his own experiences. Rob is available by telephone Monday to Friday from 8:30am to 1:30pm and you can also book an appointment to visit the centre during these hours. You can purchase from our stock items or we can place an order dependant on your requirements.

Just a few examples include:
  • Talking Clocks and Watches
