Moorvision supports children, young people and parents with vision impairments throughout Devon and

Moorvision is a support group for children, young people (aged 0 to 25 years) and parents with vision impairments in Devon and Cornwall. The group is open to all children with vision impairment, their parents, carers, siblings and extended families. It is also open to adults with vision impairment who have sighted or vision impaired children under 18. We offer advice, support, advocacy, information, family days out, sports, arts and drama, teenage evenings, parents evenings and parent training days.

Why the community needs us
Our aims are to offer support, information and a chance for shared experiences and to reduce the loneliness so often felt by children with vision impairment, (very many of whom are the only such child in their mainstream school) and their families in these very rural and often isolated areas.

Our impact on the community
So far, in fifteen years we have grown from 5 families to 180 families and extended our services to both Devon and Cornwall. We support children who only have a vision impairment as well as those who have a vision impairment and additional needs. Our impact on the lives of these children and their families can be life changing.

Volunteers needed

We are always happy to welcome volunteers to help us at events, to help with admin and to help raise funds for our group.
