Event Description

Did you know that over 350,000 people are living with sight loss in Essex? Sensory loss and lead to social isolation and loneliness.

Chelmsford Library will be hosting a HiVis Fortnight Fair on Friday 6 June, 10am to 1pm with specially invited organisations that offer support to people with sight loss.

Organisations attending will include Essex Sight, Essex Sensory Team, BorrowBox and more. This is a great opportunity for our customers who are living with sight loss to come and discover what the library has to offer but also to have their say as to what kind of support group they’d like at Chelmsford Library.

Free drop-in event, no booking required.
