Housing resources
When someone tells us that they need to move to a specialist home because of their sight problem, our first question is always - why? Think about it. What does home really mean to you? Would you prefer to stay where you are? Before assuming that moving is the only option, consider whether, with the right support and some minor adjustments, you could continue to live independently in your current home.
