Our aim is to support people with sight impairment resident in North East Fife by offering a monthly programme of social activities, which are usually held on the first Thursday of the month. These include visits to places of interest, theatre visits, museums and outdoor activities We are supported by a dedicated team of volunteers and Royal Voluntary Service drivers, who provide transport and guiding. Feedback from members indicates that getting out and about to participate in new activities is vital for social interaction and peer group support.BASE (Blind Activities Support Events) is a Scottish Registered Charity which was established in 2005 by blind and partially sighted people. Our aim is to empower sight impaired people to engage in activities, address social isolation and enhance wellbeing.We have a management committee consisting of nine Trustees and one co-opted member, the majority of whom are themselves sight impaired. The Committee meets every 6 to 8 weeks.BASE depends for its work entirely on fundraising support from donations and funding applications to various charitable trusts.
