There is all sorts of help and support available from lots of different sources, but Torch has a unique focus on the spiritual needs of blind and partially sighted people. So whether it’s an accessible Bible or Christian book, encouragement, fellowship or support, we’re here to serve you.
Purpose Statement
Torch Trust exists to enable blind and partially sighted people to encounter Jesus, grow in their Christian faith and thrive in Christian community.

Supporting us in prayer
Prayer is the foundation of our support. We need your prayer more than anything else: prayer for guidance, prayer for our staff and those we are in contact with, prayer for our activities, prayer for our outreach, prayer for our international activities, and prayer for our financial needs.

Jesus is for everyone
Everyone has the right to a fulfilling spiritual life, but feeling left out or unable to join in at church often means that people stop attending altogether. They then miss out not just on regular services, but social activities, a sense of community and a feeling of human connection. Churches may not realise that anyone in their congregation or local community has sight loss, and if they do they may not know how to provide support. Sight Loss Friendly Church is here to help.
