Club Wilber
Club Wilber: activities for children with visual impairments, their siblings and families in Yorkshire.
The Wilberforce Trust’s vision is to see a world in which all people with visual impairments, including those with other disabilities, are truly integrated in society with equal opportunities in all aspects of life and to know that our passion and commitment have been influential in bringing this about.
We understand that families often find their options for recreational activities limited and that activities can exclude children due to them having a visual impairment. Additionally, families find their time taken up by appointments and services, leaving little time for them to plan trips that they can all enjoy.
As a result of this, in 2019, we created Club Wilber: a service that allows us to offer out of school support and activities to children with visual impairments, alongside their siblings. We run adapted activities, events and trips that are suitable for families with visually impaired children and their siblings from the ages of 0 to 25 years.
Club Wilber is completely free to join, and our activities are mostly funded, meaning we only ever charge you what we can’t cover. We also run a variety of free activities across the year based on our funding and fundraising capabilities, giving a wide range of options for you to take part in.
