RSBC - Royal Society for Blind Children
We are on a mission to make sure every single blind child has the self-belief and skills to fulfil the potential we know they’ve got.
ABOUT US: 

Every day at the Royal Society for Blind Children we meet blind and partially sighted young people who are brimming with potential and ready to take on the world, but we also meet young people who have fallen into depression and poverty. RSBC's professional team is on hand to help young people aged 0-25 and their families understand their condition and build the confidence they need to take control of their life.

WHY OUR WORK MATTERS: 

90% of those who lose their sight in youth won’t work for more than six months in their lives. Most will never have someone to share their life with.

OUR VALUES: 
Accountable and responsible: Each of us takes responsibility for delivering great work and are accountable both as individuals as well as members of a team, for performance. Work is always aligned with our organisational objectives so we are accountable to the partners and young people we work with.§Respect for each other: We show respect for everyone inside and outside of RSBC. We do this by always listening, being courteous, sticking to agreed timelines and honouring commitments we make.§Straight talking: At RSBC we speak up, safe in the knowledge that each voice and idea is valued. You can expect that what we say is always positive, constructive and simple. We accept straight talking from each other and those we work with.§Constantly learning and innovating: We will retain passion for our roles by taking every opportunity to develop ourselves and share our knowledge. We’re not afraid to work in different ways to achieve the best results.§Confronting Reality: RSBC staff understand and acknowledge our mistakes and where we can be better. We use feedback from service users, donors and partners, as well as stringent monitoring to improve our work and people’s experience of RSBC.§Deliver results: Aligned with organisational objectives we break our plans down into realistic steps and set measurable goals. By working to the highest standards, testing assumptions and seeking regular feedback we get results.
