We are Sight Concern
At Sight Concern Bedfordshire, we provide personalised support and services to help people with sight loss maintain independence.
Who we are
Sight Concern Bedfordshire is the local, independent charity supporting people affected by sight loss across Luton and Bedfordshire. With offices in Luton and Bedford, we serve an estimated 6,500 people living with moderate or severe visual impairment in the region.
The Impact of Sight Loss
Sight loss can affect people of all ages but is particularly common in older adults. Nationally, 1 in 7 people aged over 65 and 1 in 3 people aged over 85 experience some form of visual impairment.
How We Can Help
We understand that adjusting to sight loss can be challenging. That’s where we come in.

- Continue activities you enjoy.
- Stay connected with family and friends.
What We Do
Our mission is to enable people living with sight loss to live full, active, and independent lives. We achieve this through:
- Support and services designed around your needs
- Helping you overcome challenges to live more independently
- Supporting the people around you to give the best all-around help
The Difference We Make
One of the people we’ve supported shared this:
If I hadn’t had Sight Concern in my life I would still be at home, doing nothing all day, not talking to anyone.
