About Jewish Blind & Disabled

We are the only Jewish charity dedicated to ensuring that neither physical disability nor vision impairment becomes a barrier to maintaining one’s independence and dignity. We provide developments of mobility apartments specially designed to enable people to do the everyday tasks that are key to living independently, in safety behind their own front door. We have over 360 people living across our 7 developments with ages ranging from those in their 30’s to over 100 years old.

Most of our tenants are not born with a disability, instead, at some point in their lives, they face a diagnosis that will have a significant impact on their life from that time forward. We know that with the right facilities and support, a disability does not have to mean a loss of vital independence and self-worth.

Each of our buildings has its own supportive Jewish community with our house managers being central to the building. Along with providing a 24/7 on call service 365 days a year, house managers keep a caring eye on our tenants, calling them, unless requested not to do so, every morning and evening to check that everything is ok.

We work in partnership with a wide range of local and communal organisations, social care and health providers to support our tenants to be active and supported members of their local community.

Community engagement is at the heart of all we do.

Alongside our supported housing developments, we oer support for adults with physical disabilities or vision impairments to remain independent in their own homes, through our growing range of community services.

These include specialist home-based assessments by occupational therapists and vision rehabilitation specialists to help make life easier and safer at home, as well as supportive peer groups for people living with sight loss or multiple sclerosis.

Our Vision, Mission and Values

Jewish Blind & Disabled exists for Jewish people with physical disabilities and/or vision impairments aged 18 upwards to have access to housing and support so that they lead the best life they can; enabling independence, dignity and choice. This is achieved through our specially adapted mobility apartments located in our unique supportive developments or within their own home in the wider community. We are committed to ensuring we can meet the needs and increased demand from across the community.

We are a values led organisation. We are guided by our strong Jewish values. Our behaviours demonstrate how we live our values. We will use these behaviours to:

1 Ensure we recruit people who share our values and can demonstratethe behaviours we seek to encourage in our sta team

2 Measure performance and identify support and developmentneeds of our sta
