Significant Sight Loss Awareness for Employers
Thursday, March 11, 2021 at 2 PM - 4 PM GMT

SUSE is the lead partner in the Disability Employment Gap Public Social Partnership (PSP) which has been commissioned by the Scottish Government.

The Disability Employment Gap PSP is a unique and forward-thinking initiative in the Scottish employability landscape. We aim to contribute to the ambition set by the Scottish Government in The Fairer Scotland for Disabled People – Employment Action Plan, to half the Disability Employment Gap by 2038.

As part of funding made available from the partnership, we are delighted to offer employers a free introductory session exploring significant sight loss.

This course will be presented by partner organisation Sight Scotland, who provide care and support that empowers people affected by sight loss in Scotland.

This session will cover:

· An introduction to significant sight loss and common difficulties that people face

· Reasonable adjustments’ and how to implement these

· Strategies to include and support people with significant sight loss
