It was a brilliant weekend of sharing ideas, building connections, and driving change.
SLC member Nikki said: "I have loved learning about the work going on. It's been great to leave with fresh ideas from networking with other Sight Loss Councils."
Great to see collaboration in action for #BetterTransportWeek 👏

#SLConference #VisionForChange
A week on from our SLC Conference in Leeds, we’re saying a huge thank you to our sighted guides. Their time and support helped make the event accessible for all.
One shared: “It’s a chance to make a difference and meet amazing people…”
We’re so grateful 🩵 #SLConference
Still riding the post-conference high 💙
Dr Amit Patel & guide dog Kika reminded us that change happens through “a thousand small moments, carried forward by people who care enough to keep showing up.”
Thank you to all our volunteers creating change every day.
