At these monthly meetings organised by the Dorset Blind Association, we chat about books, objects from Blandford’s history, or any other ideas around sight loss and blindness. We also have coffee or tea and biscuits! Everyone who is dealing with vision impairment, and their family members and carers, are very welcome to join us.
