Hi Pauline
We are currently expanding our rehabilitation / mobility services from working in Pre 16 education to include support for learners with a sight loss in FE & HE. The purpose of this expansion is to try and meet the ever increasing demand for orientation and mobility training for learners entering a new environment and the difficulties Social Services are having in meeting this need. If your would like to contact me to discuss this, my contact details are tel 020 7391 2138 or [log in to unmask] I am back in the office on Monday 4th April, but will be picking up emails intermittently. Hope this helps

Hi All,
Please see the message below which I am forwarding from my own sent
items box!!! The Easter Cheer must have effected the Dis-forum server
because I've had one message to say that my message was distributed and
then another to say it has been rejected. So just to make sure you all
get this message I'm resending as advised by the dis-forum server.
Sorry if you get this twice, blame the person who gave the server the
brandy!!!

Subject: Private Mobility training
Hi All,
Does anyone know where I might be able to find a mobility instructor for
a blind student? The waiting list in our local area for mobility
instruction is terribly long and despite being told that he should
register with our local council back in September, the student concerned
has not yet done this.
His DSA will pay for some private mobility training but I can't find
anyone to do it and the local council doesn't have anyone either.
Any help gratefully accepted on this one.
Regards
Pauline
