Whether considering training, volunteering, employment or simply trying something new, VisionWorks can help build confidence, develop practical independence, make friendships and explore interests at a pace that works for all.

VisionWorks will also offer a space to talk about change, share experiences and focus on wellbeing now and for the future.
