Stargardt's Connected

Bhavna attended the Community Alliance Broxbourne and East Herts (CABEH) Autumn Conference where she was invited to speak about Stargardt’s Connected and how CABEH has supported her and the charity on its journey.

The theme of the conference was “Navigating change, driving impact together” and some of the main key takeaways were the importance of community, connections and collaboration.

Bhavna is really grateful for their support, training and networking opportunities to help guide and grow the charity and other organisations.

Stargardt's Connected
3 weeks ago

Join us on Saturday 26th September from 12:00pm to 1:30pm for a Zoom session exploring home technology and how you can adapt your home to better suit your needs when living with Stargardt’s disease. We will be joined by Robert McCann, Stargardt’s Connected Trustee and Equipment Centre Coordinator at Sheffield Royal Society for the Blind, who will share practical advice, personal experiences, and useful tips to help make everyday life at home easier and more accessible. There will also be lots of opportunity to share your home tech adaptations techniques and ideas with the group.

In the second part, we will have our usual breakout sessions where you’ll have the opportunity to speak to others in smaller groups, share your experiences and connect with others in the community.

Here is the link to register: us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/-qRXHk2QQvSodoHA5NwQJQ
