A coffee morning at SeeAbility!

What a lovely morning we had at the beginning of this week getting to know about the amazing work SeeAbility.org are doing in Seaford. We were invited alongside Mayor Argent and District Cllr Olivia Honeyman to visit their facilities at Bradbury House. 
It was great to see how happy their residents are, and how much they do to help them lead independent and fulfilling lives! 
Sometimes you forget they have a difficulty and are partially sighted or fully blind! I enjoyed talking to Emily, who is a delightful young lady and also hearing some of James' hilarious jokes as well as learning from Ben how he organises his shopping lists and cooks his meals! Jo showed amazing skill with her super fast Braille reading and we had a go at scrabble which she is a champ! 
I came home happy and amazed at how capable they are and how much time and love and passion their staff have for what they do! An asset for Seaford! They are also currently fundraising to complete the works for a paved area in their garden so if you fancy making a donation, be in touch with their fund raising manager! 
Thank you!!!
