AnnotationWide gaps in services for visually impaired people have emerged in a new study of 400 participants aged 55+ living in various types of housing in Plymouth, Birmingham and London. They included individuals who were in touch with specialist services, as well as those who were not. The author discusses the results, which are variously published by the Thomas Pocklington Trust as an Occasional paper, Research findings and a full report, "The housing and support needs of older people with visual impairment". (RH).
