Sense

Sense supports and campaigns for children and adults who are deafblind or have sensory impairments.

Sense provide expert advice and information as well as specialist services to deafblind people, their families, carers and the professionals who work with them. They also support people who have sensory impairments with additional disabilities.


Sense's services include on-going support for deafblind people and families. These range from day services where deafblind people have the opportunity to learn new skills and Sense-run houses in the community - where people are supported to live as independently as possible. They also provide leading specialist advice, for example on education options and assistive technology.

Sense offer high-quality, flexible services across the UK, using skilled staff and a dedicated network of volunteers. They work with a wide range of people who are deafblind or have sensory impairments, as well as those who have a single-sensory impairment with additional needs. They have skills in complex communication, orientation and challenging behaviour.

Sense take pride in offering services built around the wishes of each person They support and enabling them to be as independent as possible.

They have a range of direct services from breaks and flexible packages of support through to registered care and supported living.
