Cardiff Council is consulting on their Active Travel Network Map and would like to hear your thoughts.
Sight Life, formerly known as Cardiff Institute for the Blind until October 2019, offers a wide range of local services to support blind and partially sighted people across much of South Wales. Our mission is to help people live independent, active, social, and fulfilling lives. Established in 1865, we are one of Wales' oldest charities. We are proud to have rugby legend Sir Gareth Edwards, CBE, as our President, and Wales' renowned female impersonator, Ceri Dupree, as our patron.
What we do
Our dedicated team of staff and volunteers are here to provide help and advice on all issues relating to sight loss. You do not need to be registered blind or partially sighted to access our services. The support we offer is appropriate for those who are newly diagnosed as well as those who have had sight loss for a long time and family friends and carers.
Support Us
Your generosity and support enable us to achieve all the incredible things we do. Your donations truly impact the lives of blind and partially sighted people in South Wales.
There are many ways you can contribute: by making a donation, leaving a legacy in your Will, participating in a fundraising or sponsored event, or volunteering your time.
Donate
By donating to Sight Life, you’ll help us reach more blind and partially sighted individuals, making a meaningful impact in the lives of local people when they need us the most. Every penny really makes a difference.

We Are Social
A huge thank you to Sight Life for a genuinely wonderful evening at the Spring Ball on Friday.
The PiSYS team thoroughly enjoyed the event, from the warm welcome and fantastic hospitality to the opportunity to meet so many inspiring people supporting such an important cause.
The casino tables brought out everyone's competitive side, the food was excellent and comedian Bob Webb had the whole room laughing. Most importantly, it was fantastic to see so many organisations and individuals coming together to support the incredible work Sight Life does for people living with sight loss across South Wales.
Events like these remind us of the power of community, connection and giving back.
Thank you to everyone involved in organising such a memorable evening. We were delighted to be part of it and look forward to supporting Sight Life again in the future.
