On Tuesday 4 June, members of the iSightCornwall team will be at Cornwall’s Regimental Museum in Bodmin to provide advice and information about the services available to visually impaired people in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly.

Our Assistive Technology Officers, Rod and Dom, will also be demonstrating the latest low vision aids, mobile phones, tablets and video magnifiers designed for visually impaired people. Please let us know in advance if there is a specific gadget or device that you would like us to bring to the event.

We will also be joined by representatives from Enhanced VisionGuide Dogs for the Blind, the Macular Society and Dolphin who will be on hand to offer advice and answer questions.

Getting to Cornwall’s Regimental Museum

The Regimental Museum is easily accessible from the A30 and is located on the B3268 Lostwithiel Road. Victoria Square pay-and-display car park is located 100 metres from the museum, along Castle Canyke Road.

We will be holding a number of Sight Loss Awareness events across Cornwall over the next few months so please ensure you check our events diary regularly for updated listings.
