Scott Jobson, Chief Executive at MySight York said, “Our Community Connect project is at the heart of this nomination, a peer-led-lived-experience-driven initiative that’s helping to reshape York into a truly Sight Loss Friendly City.

From accessible sport, heritage and storytelling, to social media inclusion training, to our powerful Sight Loss Friendly Status charter mark, this project is delivering practical, lasting change.

We’re honoured to be recognised alongside so many incredible organisations in the sector, and proud to champion a model that empowers people and transforms places.”

Special thank you to all collaborating organisations who have shown their commitment to accessibility, by being involved in the Community Connect project.
