Always aiming to increase knowledge through experience, expertise and history
We strive to improve quality of life, increase independence and reduce the social isolation of those affected by sight loss and other disabilities. We work at the heart of the community – creating long-lasting and real change through education, community support, and enterprise.
We work throughout the North of England and our places include a Specialist College, Community Centres and an Arts & Crafts Centre. We support disabled people to be part of their local community. We are continually developing technology to support more people, wherever they are, online.
Henshaws has developed its core values, which are embedded through all we do across the charity.
Always aiming to increase knowledge through experience, expertise and history
Desire to exchange experiences and ideas with others.
Displaying empathy and understanding.
Through the life changing impact on the people we support
Actively helping and supporting individuals
Encouraging and supporting individuals to reach their full potential
Our dedicated staff and volunteers are the fuel of the organisation; they provide support, advice and training, enabling people and their families to build skills, develop confidence, help each other and look forward to a more positive future.
