Hello,
I hope you are all keeping safe and well. I'm reaching out to all of our
members and those who are engaging with our groups currently. We have been
really happy to see such a significant increase in those who have joined our
various groups over the last 6 weeks. We've had a lot of positive feedback and
we are delighted to be part of a team that is providing support, connection,
learning and community to so many.
In order to assist in our detailing of the work we are trying to accomplish,
and also to attract a means of essential fundraising, we would like to ask if
anyone would be willing to share a quote and specific feedback regarding your
experience of staying connected and being supported by Fighting Blindness, in
particular since the emergence of the health crisis. This could relate to the
Technology Exchange clubs, Mindfulness, Peer Support, Counselling - anything at
all that you would care to be quoted on. This is of course entirely at your
own discretion. However, it is always our preference that we allow those who we
support to have their own voice heard and in their own words, as opposed to
just our own promotion of the organisation. If you'd like to put your name to a
quote or feedback, please feel free to send this directly to our Communications
Manager Laura Hally at
laura.hally@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx<mailto:laura.hally@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Finally, we'd like to take the time to thank you all for being the essential
part of this chain of connection. It is through the generosity of spirit and
the willingness to engage with others and to offer your support and camaraderie
that is the core of our building a string community during difficult times- and
hopefully in better times too. Thanks also to our regular and dedicated team
of volunteers who have stuck with us through thick and thin - it's all very
much appreciated.
Kind regards
Peter
