About Sense
About This Shop
Sense is the leading national charity that supports and campaigns for children and adults who are deafblind. We provide expert advice and information as well as specialist services to deafblind people, their families, carers, and the professionals who work with them. We also support people who have sensory impairments with additional disabilities.
Our services include on-going support for deafblind people and families. These range from day services where deafblind people have the opportunity to learn new skills and Sense-run houses in the community – where people are supported to live as independently as possible. Our communicator-guides offer a vital lifeline to deafblind people living in their own homes. We also provide leading specialist advice, for example on education options and assistive technology.
Sense has worked with deafblind people and their families for 50 years. We have established services and campaigned vigorously for change where it is wanted – earning us our worldwide reputation as the leading experts in deafblindness.
