Flying High

Barbara Whitehead and George Adeseko will be hoping to raise as much sponsorship as possible over the coming months, as they prepare to do a charity skydive this September. Barbara and George are visitors to Wardington Court Activity Centre in Kingsthorpe, Northampton. Barbara is visually impaired and a spritely 76 year old, she has attended the Activity Centre for many years where she socialises with her friends and enjoys taking part in the many activities they organise. George is 24 and is a carer for a visually impaired person who attends Wardington Court. He has been impressed with the care and attention blind and partially sighted people receive at Wardington Court and would like to help the centre by raising much needed funds for them.

Barbara and George want to skydive (they must be mad) and they are hoping you will sponsor them for as much as you can afford. Obviously they will be delighted to receive your support on the day as well. If you want more information about their event please contact Alan Williams on 01604 719193 or donate online at www.justgiving.com/stefaniedavies1

Online Services
Here at NAB we know that, for many blind and partially sighted people, everyday tasks such as shopping, paying bills, banking etc. can be difficult. If you are visually impaired and have struggled to read labels in shops, or had difficulty in finding a staff member to take you around a shop and help you etc., then perhaps our new Online service can help.
