In the UK, more than two million people are living with sight loss that’s severe enough to affect their daily lives.
Playing a vital role in empowering these people are visual impairment charities – wonderful organisations that offer practical help, adaptive technology, rehabilitation services and social inclusion programmes.
At Yarn, we feel incredibly proud to have already partnered with a wide range of charities for people living with sight loss, such as Blind Veterans UK, Orbis and Sight Scotland.
Now, we’d loved to help many more organisations for blind and visually impaired people tell their stories and increase their impact.
How we work with charities for visually impaired people
When we partner with an organisation supporting people with sight loss, we begin by exploring what makes you unique – your mission, brand, services and the people you aim to help.
During this research stage, we also dive deep into your brief, analysing goals, uncovering opportunities and spotting potential challenges.
From this strong foundation, our talented creatives craft authentic stories that engage target audiences, win hearts and minds, and inspire real-world action.
At Yarn, we don’t just stop at great storytelling – we go the extra mile (and a little further) to make your experience with us fully collaborative, stress-free and genuinely enjoyable.

"I have really enjoyed working with Yarn over the last 18 months. They are always engaged in our appeals and case stories, providing interesting concepts for us to choose from. At feedback stages, they listen to our comments and are happy to discuss changes if needed. The account management has also been excellent."
