Welcome to Henshaws!

As one of the oldest charities in the UK, we provide expert support, advice and training to anyone affected by sight loss and other disabilities to develop the skills and independence they need to lead lives that are as full as possible. Our charity services support blind and visually impaired children and babies, their families, young and older people and we help hundreds of visually impaired, blind and disabled people each year.  We work throughout the North of England, with centres and communities in Yorkshire, North West and the North East including a further education college and an Arts and Craft Centre near Harrogate.
