What will the funds raised go towards?
Low Vision Aids
By increasing stock in our Lending Library, we give our service users the chance to try before they buy.
From magnifiers, screen readers and other low vision aids, we understand how important it is to find the right solution — especially when these tools can be expensive.
By offering a wide range of aids to trial, we help individuals make confident, informed choices that truly support their independence and quality of life.
Employment and Training
At Highland BlindCraft, we’re proud to offer paid employment to a team of 30 incredible individuals with diverse abilities. We provide a safe, supportive environment where staff can thrive, grow in confidence, and, when ready, move on to new opportunities.
We also offer training in literacy, numeracy, and social skills to those who wish to partake, helping each person reach their full potential.
Upgrade to Machinery
Highland BlindCraft Beds are planning to invest in new machinery and replace older equipment where needed.
This upgrade will help us continue producing the high-quality beds and mattresses we’re proudly known for — ensuring comfort, craftsmanship, and consistency for every customer.
Uniforms
We’re currently fundraising for new uniforms for our customer facing staff, smart fleeces, polo tops and essentials they can wear with pride at events and in the showroom.
It’s a small touch that will help our team feel united, and easily recognised when representing Highland BlindCraft across the Highlands and beyond.
