Self-help group for people with visual impairments in Marzahn-Hellersdorf: become strong together!

The self-help group for people with acquired visual impairment in Marzahn-Hellersdorf is an important new starting point for those affected who have to deal with serious and progressive visual problems. With regular meetings, free events and even a path assistance for the first participants, the group is aimed at offering support and community for people with visual difficulties.

Why is the self -help group important?

The effects of retinal disease such as macular degeneration can lead to considerable restrictions in everyday life, from difficulties when recognizing faces and social isolation. The group offers a safe space for the exchange of thoughts and information to support those affected and improve their quality of life.

How can those affected participate?

The self -help group meets every second and fourth Wednesday of the month at 1:00 p.m. in the self -help contact point. Interested parties can register by phone at (030) 5425103, by email or personally in Alt Marzahn 59a, 12685 Berlin. There are still free places for other affected people who want to benefit from the support and community.

The foundation of this self-help group is an important step to help people with visual impairments in Marzahn-Hellersdorf and improve their quality of life. Due to the regular exchange and mutual support, those affected can learn to deal with their visual problems and to take part in social life again.
