YTD Raised: £0.00The East Sussex Association of Blind and Partially Sighted People (ESAB) works with over 1,700 local people who are blind or partially sighted. We offer clients information, training and support. We want our clients to have the same opportunities as sighted people, to be more confident and knowledgeable and have increased choice and control in their lives. We also deliver vision awareness training for carers, local businesses and community groups. This helps the wider community understand how they can help people with a visual impairment to overcome some of the problems they face. There are many different causes of blindness and people experience their sight loss in different ways. This is why ESAB focuses on individuals and develops a Seeing the Future plan with each client to identify their aims and how we can support them to achieve these. Many of ESAB’s clients are over the age of 65 but we are working with increasing numbers of younger people.

We provide bursaries for children with autism between the ages of 2.5 - 3.5 years old within Hampshire to participate in an ABA programme. Funds are offered to means tested families and each bursary provides the financial support to staff a consultant and a team of tutors throughout the first year. Through early intervention, our aim is to provide young children with autism the opportunity to have a highly effective tailor-made programme, which uses techniques and principles to bring about meaningful and positive changes in behaviour. They will acquire the skills to improve their functional daily living and communication, play and social interaction, and allow them access to the most appropriate school setting with provision to best match their needs.

Most of them have lost their parents to HIV/AIDS and are in desperate need of love, care and support. Despite the often tragic circumstances which led to them entering the home, the home has provided the children with a stable environment to learn, grow and play. There is a clear mother and father figure and the children consider themselves brothers and sisters. This tight-knit family feel has allowed the children to thrive. More info on the home, the children and the work we do is available on our website www.funsanikids4kids.org
