Resource Centre

There is a vast array of equipment on the market that can assist people with a sight or hearing impairment in many number of ways.

We prefer you to book a visit to the Resource Centre in advance so as to avoid disappointment, particularly as it can take an hour or more for an appropriate assessment, and have a hands-on look at items of interest..

Visitors to the Resource Centre often come with their partner, friend, family escort or carer and they are very welcome to participate in the experience.

If a personal companion is not available to assist you with your visit, Sensory Services by Sight for Surrey will endeavour to provide you with a volunteer driver, for which we rely on donations.

To book a face to face appointment or look over some equipment, please call the Helpdesk on 01372 377701 or email helpdesk@sightforsurrey.org.uk
