Wiltshire Sight, is here to offer information, advice and support to anyone affected by sight loss and to raise the profile of sight loss in the local community. We’re a source of support, helping with the things that people affected by sight loss want and need.
There are currently 20,650 people living with a sight loss in Wiltshire and Swindon. By 2020 this is set to rise to 26,500 (RNIB figures 2013). We know that sight loss affects people in different ways, but we also know that it has a massive impact on not only the individual but also the individual’s family and lifestyle. This includes 195 children registered blind or partially sighted. When sight is lost everyday tasks need to be re-learnt in order for the individual to remain independent and continue to reach their full potential. Our key aim is to support those with sight loss to lead fulfilling, independent lives and to reach their full potential. This is done by offering a range of services:
Founded in 1919, we serve the local community of Wiltshire & Swindon. As an independent charity we receive no statutory funding and rely on the generosity of our supporters and the local community.

fundraising ideasA list of charities that we are partnered with are here for you to select. Some of the charities that we work with have fundraising targets and others are self-funded by yourself, each charity we work with will state if they will contribute to some of your jump cost or if you need to self-fund your own place.
You can book individually or as a group with just a £50 deposit per person on any operational day. Some of the charities we work with have reserved spaces on pre-selected days that you are more than welcome to join.
OK you’re all set – This is now the time to start fundraising for your selected charity, we recommend to set up an online fundraising page as all funds you raise will automatically go to the charity of your choice. Please remember you are unable to use any money raised to pay for your skydive and if you have a target set by the charity you have to hit this 3 weeks before the date of your jump to ensure these funds are online for the charity to see!
