“Our vision is to support the vision of others”
Vision Support is a local independent charity. We understand the importance of encouraging our visually impaired members to develop their talents and skills, even if that means they use different materials and adapted techniques due to their sight loss. This exhibition provides the opportunity to showcase the excellent work that they have been producing and to promote them as artists.
Starbeck Railway Athletics Christmas Market
Sunday 26th November 2023, 10am – 3pm
The Harrogate Hospital & Community Charity are holding a Christmas market and we have hired a stall to sell our lovely Christmas gifts. Many of you will know that Vision Support Harrogate District has been providing the Eye Clinic with an Eye Clinic Liaison Officer for the past 26 years. Our charity pays for this service in order to offer emotional and practical support to those diagnosed with a serious eye condition and are losing their sight. It is fitting that we should have a stall at the event, so we do hope that you will come along and support both us and the hospital.
