We're Blind Veterans UK, formerly St Dunstan's, and we believe that no one who's served our country should battle blindness alone.

That's why we're here to help with a lifetime's practical and emotional support, regardless of when people served or how they lost their sight. We get our members back on their feet, recovering their independence and discovering a life beyond sight loss.

Introduction: We all make journeys. Those journeys can be exciting, scary, easy, difficult... There are times when we feel on top of the world and times when we feel that we can't cope any more! Emotions and experiences can be more profound if you are vision impaired. Vip-Advisor is a place where you can share your stories and gain support from others who may not be able to wear your shoes but, do have an understanding of your perspective. And if you don't need support... Then stay and Help!

Who are VipAdvisors? In short, You are!

Our Focus: VipAdvisors are all on different and unique types of travel and journeys. You may want practical help on getting to the cinema; travelling to a new area as a tourist; going to the theatre; tips on where the most helpful hotels are; booking and going on a holiday or gaining the confidence to join a club/group/church/pub; Discussing changes to benefits; cooking and recipes!

Help and Support: can range from listening to the stories of others; responding to something you hear; offering your advice and perspective... Right through to meeting someone and giving them the guided tour of their destination, which could well be your locality!

My name is Maria, I'm 40 & live in las Vegas with my wonderful family. I'm very invested in my family & friends, they are the best investments I've ever made, they never go down in value and they make me rich in blessing. I'm open minded & friendly.

In Telling a bit about myself, I would probably not be as truthful as you'd like for me to be so, I shall perhaps not write anything about me; its safer that way. Smiles.
