Jenny’s story - 20-year-old Jenny has cerebral palsy and a learning disability. She has no verbal communication. An assessment through RNIB's Visual Impairment and Learning Disability services revealed that Jenny also has several eye conditions. We supported Jenny and her carers in understanding the impact of her sight loss and finding communication solutions. Jenny now uses ‘eye-pointing’ to express her feelings and choices.
