Visual impairment awareness training (VIAT)

VIAT is an interactive one day visual impairment training course for anyone who wants to know more about life with a visual impairment.

Through our visual impairment training course you will learn

• How the eye works
• About a range of eye conditions
• How to approach and guide a person with a visual impairment
• About accessible equipment and daily living skills

You’ll also get a useful information pack to take away and use when you need it.
