My Sight Nottingham Social Group
We are currently running a waiting list for this group.
My Sight Nottingham social group meet weekly on a Thursday at Heathcoat Street. The group is run by our lovely, friendly volunteers who are happy to welcome you with a smile and a cuppa.
The social group offers local people with sight loss the chance to get together, meet new people and take part in a broad range of activities. There is never a dull moment with activities such as arts and crafts, board games, quizzes, days out, guest speakers, musicians and so much more!
Please contact us before attending the group as you will need to complete an Emergency Contact Form and we need to make sure there are spaces available.
Please contact Sarah Briggs, Sight Loss Advisor at My Sight Notts, on 0115 9706806 or email sarahb@mysightnotts.org.uk
