Every ticket bought helps rebuild a life
When you take part in the Blind Veterans UK raffle, your tickets could provide blind ex-Service men and women with the rehabilitation, training, practical advice and emotional support they need to rebuild their lives.
By entering our raffle, you could support blind veterans like Roan.
After six years in the Army, Roan’s career sadly came to an end when he was diagnosed with a degenerative eye condition. He became very depressed and isolated in his own home as he began to come to terms with his sight loss. Luckily, things began to change for Roan when he attended an induction week at one of our Centres. He was able to meet other blind veterans who were living life to the fullest. “It was a wake-up call,” says Roan.
From that moment on, Roan has seized every opportunity that’s come his way. From sailing to climbing and trekking across the world, no matter the challenge, Roan gets stuck in, knowing that his sight loss doesn’t have to hold him back. With the right support and guidance from our charity, Roan has built his confidence. He says, “Socially, mentally, even professionally speaking, I’m in a much better position today than I could have even dreamed of back then.”
With each £1 ticket you buy, more blind veterans like Roan will have something to celebrate. With your help, they can rediscover confidence and independence. Your support makes so much difference.
