EQUIPMENT
AND INFORMATION CENTRES
This is the term used to define the centres in the County where equipment and aids for daily independent living can be seen and demonstrated. Each provides assessment and demonstrations facilities for a comprehensive range of equipment for people with physical and sensory disabilities and their carers. Visits to all of these centres are by appointment. During a visit, a volunteer will provide advice and information and demonstrate items of equipment that may be beneficial to people with visual impairment. There are six of these centres located around the County, contact details of which are provided below.
