What the charity does
KVIN also known as Outlookers is a sight loss organisation which supports people living with sight loss to learn to use technology to help remain independent. We have several drop-in facilities across Kirklees. We recognise the devastation that losing sight can cause. The majority of our volunteers and staff are registered blind and have lived experience to offer .
