Description: This worldwide support group is run via Facebook and welcomes Australians of all ages who are blind or have low vision. The group decreases feelings of isolation, and gets members talking and getting out into the community by running their own events, encouraging / posting regular discussions and information and links about blindness organisation events and news. Most members are currently aged 16-35, so events are for this age bracket. When more members of different ages join, there will be events for wider age groups. The group is always looking for members who are interested in organising outings in their local area, so email Chloe, group administrator, at blindandvisionimpaired@gmail.com if you want to join the group, or would like more information.
