Role

Thomas Pocklington Trust (TPT) and RNIB are collaborating with charities in the sight loss sector to create new opportunities for blind and partially sighted people to find employment through the Get Set Progress Internship programme. Sight Scotland Veterans is delighted to be offering an internship as part of the Get set Progress scheme.

Sight Scotland Veterans provides support to all veterans in Scotland who are experiencing changes to their sight, regardless of the cause, or what point you are at. We give support that ranges from practical advice and identifying solutions that help you stay as independent as possible, to vital emotional support and opportunities to meet others facing sight loss.

Our Activity Centres provide innovative and person-centred services and support to veterans struggling with sight loss. The services aim to reduce isolation and anxiety while improving independence and confidence to live well with a visual impairment now and in the future. The services offer veterans and their families and carers access to information, support, meaningful activity and social engagement in a welcoming environment.

You will provide tailored support to veterans and their families at all stages of their sight loss journey. You will work alongside the veterans to ensure that the support provided is person-centred, tailored to their needs and is the right support for them. You will support the centre team by coordinating and facilitating activities provided within and from the Activity Centre which will support the overall wellbeing of the veterans and their families.
