Objectives

RNIB's vision is a world in which blind and partially sighted people enjoy the same rights, freedoms, responsibilities and quality of life as people who are fully sighted and one in which no one needlessly loses their sight

Activities

RNIB campaigns on issues that matter to people with sight problems.
Our campaign work will be around our six campaign priority areas over the next three years: eliminating avoidable sight loss; improving access to health and social care; improving access to information and information systems; increasing employment amongst blind and partially sighted people; increasing income for blind and partially sighted people; improving access to television, audio visual culture and life long learning. We will also continue to campaign on reactive issues.
We campaign and lobby to influence decision makers. We have strong links with government in the EU and Westminster and the devolved administrations in the UK. We work in partnership with other organisations to maximise the effectiveness of our campaigns.
