Description
Torch Tonbridge meetings on the 2nd Saturday each month for fun, friendship and interesting talks, followed by tea and cake.
People who are blind or partially sighted often find themselves isolated and lonely - excluded from many of the social things that sighted people take for granted. Even in church they may feel left out and find their needs are not adequately addressed. Without sight they cannot read the church news and find it difficult to seek out friends and make new friendships. It's good to meet together with those who face the same issues - to share experiences, to find resources and bring encouragement.
A blind or partially sighted person can feel they really “belong” in a Torch Fellowship Group and find care and support that complements what is available from churches and elsewhere. They are not an alternative to church but do provide an opportunity for Christian fellowship - visually impaired and sighted people together - but where vision is not an issue.
