The Launch of our Working Age Forum

We hope everyone is having a wonderful start to the New Year! 

We are thrilled to announce that in addition to our regular Employment Webinars, we are thrilled to announce our new initiative, the Working Age Forum. On the second Wednesday of every month, the forum provides a relaxed and friendly environment for individuals who are blind or visually impaired and of working age.

Whether you are currently employed, seeking a job, or running your own business, the Working Age Forum offers a space to connect with others, discuss relevant issues and interests, and gain inspiration from your peers.

We will feature guest speakers covering various inspiring and relevant topics, including Joanna Wood from VocalEyes and Sean Dilley – Visually Impaired BBC News Reporter.

Topics include public speaking, networking strategies for the visually impaired, technology tips, motivational talks, and more. 

Seema Flower says, “At BlindAmbition, we prioritise our members and their input. Therefore, we have developed the content for the Working Age Forum based on ideas and suggestions from our ever-growing community.” 

If you’d like to find out more, to register and receive the Zoom link for easy access, please get in touch with us at waf@blindambition.co.uk or call 0203 886 2020

We hope you can join us.
