Centenary Exhibition

Sight for Surrey Centenary Exhibition | In our exhibition room

3 May – 2 July 2023

The Sight for Surrey Centenary Story Exhibition is touring around Surrey during the charity’s Centenary year, and we are delighted to be the next host.

The exhibition looks at how technology has developed over the years to assist people with vision impairment, what the charity does and where it has come from with useful tips and fun facts.  It will also display historic items, documents and original pieces collated from the charity’s 100-year history.  Some antique items have also come from the Blind Veterans UK archives giving an insight into the lives of people with a vision impairment beyond the Surrey borders.

Visitors to the exhibition will have the opportunity to try out some braille writing and there is a ‘feely bag’ challenge.  There will be a BSL video of the exhibition, braille and large print guides.

Sensory Services by Sight for Surrey supports people on this journey from birth all the way through life.  Entry to the exhibition will be accessible during the Cathedral opening hours.  Please check the website for our opening hours with all the May Bank Holidays.
