Re:Sight
Re:Sight is a day activities centre set in the heart of the beautiful Rusper, in West Sussex.
Deliberately chosen for its location, Re:Sight day centre allows our individuals to thrive in a quite & scenic location without the interruption and hustle and bustle of every day life - and because we specialise in supporting adults who are visually impaired with profound learning difficulties and/or autism, the calm and peaceful countryside fits our service users needs to a tee.
Re:Sight is pioneering and "the first of its kind" day service centre in West Sussex that was opened especially for the visually impaired or blind people to allow for personal growth, social interaction and personal achievements, however small that might be, as we believe in "Making A Difference One Day At A Time”.
Re:Sight was established to help our own very special son/brother to continue and maintain his social skills, daily activities and have a happy structured routine as we felt this was limited after the closure of the day centre that he used to attend before the pandemic; we decided to create what we believed was missing: a day activity centre for our beloved son/ brother and others like him who felt lost at sea, left behind by services that no longer suit their needs as we found ourselves in the same boat as many people: with a very bored and confused son and brother; with nowhere to go to that specialised to meet his daily needs, and nothing to do.
We are looking to add a refreshing view to the way in which services are currently delivered by providing a unique and pleasant environment that is especially designed that focusses the individual.
Using real-life experience and with a thorough understanding of what families are enduring on a daily basis, we can help to support your loved ones with the same fervour we support our own son and brother.
By ensuring that tailored personal achievement plans are in place for each individual, and setting reasonable and achievable targets for the same, each service user can begin their journey with us safe in the knowledge that they are on a path to success, with us cheering them along every step of the way.
Our aim is to help individuals to live fulfilling, ambitious lives and to achieve their full capabilities: because everyone should be enabled to do so as far as possible, in whichever capacity they can.
Incorporating music and sound, smell, taste and touch into each of our workshops, we seek to give our service users experiences that allow all of their senses to come alive and work together to bring our sessions to life. Each workshop is carefully planned and highly versatile in nature, thereby capable of delighting a range of our most to our least verbal service users.
Here, we allow our minds to run wild, creating art work through a number of art and craft materials and resources. All artist's are supported to create a piece of work is valued, and every effort is celebrated.
