Surrey Voluntary Association
for the Blind

How we at SVAB can help you!

SVAB are here to help anyone whose eyesight has become a cause for concern whether they are registered as visually impaired or not. All our services are provided free of charge.

Any person resident in the administrative County of Surrey can make use of our services. If you live outside this area we can give you a contact for services in your local area.

We maintain the register of visually impaired people on behalf of Surrey County Council. If you wish to be registered we can provide information on the many benefits of registration.

Anyone can contact SVAB to arrange for us to make use of our services. Why not call us directly or get a family member, carer, friend, neighbour or any statutory or voluntary agency to contact us on your behalf?

We look forward to hearing from you.
