SeeAbility is a UK charity that empowers people with learning disabilities, autism and sight loss to live ambitious lives – achieving things they never thought possible. Whether it’s forming more friendships and relationships, enjoying new experiences, or finding employment, we encourage people with disabilities to challenge what they expect from life, from themselves and from wider society. Our self-advocacy, eye care, supported employment and digital inclusion programmes mean more people with disabilities can achieve their ambitions, while challenging assumptions, attitudes and policies.
Registered as The Royal School for the Blind, SeeAbility is one of the oldest disability charities in the UK and has pioneered specialist support for over 200 years.

Here's what a SeeAbility Marathon Runner said about us:
"I would like to say thanks for your support. My girlfriend is running for another charity and she has received nowhere near the level of communication and support I have received from SeeAbility. Thank you - it really has made a difference."
