The Macular Society is the UK’s leading charity supporting people with macular disease. By giving your time, you will help us support people living with macular disease and sight loss in Caithness and provide life-changing support. Our groups provide information, support and new friendships to those with macular disease, along with their family and friends. Can you help this monthly Caithness Group continue to support people by giving 3hours of your time monthly?

Our ambition is a future where every person with sight loss has the confidence and support they need to live their lives to the full. To help achieve this objective we are looking for fostering volunteers. Our respite fosterers provide temporary accommodation for a dog at home on behalf of Guide Dogs, and comply with the Boarders Agreement in relation to the welfare and handling of the dog or puppy.

Everyone has the right to live life to the full. After a diagnosis of a chest or heart condition, stroke, or Long Covid, many people experience fear and isolation, and struggle with the impact on their lives. The care and support we deliver every day ensures everyone can live the life they want to. Across Scotland, we provide vital advice, information, and support through our No Life Half Lived strategy. Join our amazing team, who support people who have had one or more of our conditions, enabling them to fully engage with their community through supporting them with a range of physical activities to develop their confidence.
