If you are living with sight loss or support someone who is, Torch is here for you. 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.
Torch Trust exists to enable blind and partially sighted people to encounter Jesus, grow in their Christian faith and thrive in Christian community.

Torch’s ministry to people with sight loss has been going for well over 60 years, fuelled by the prayers, commitment of time and financial gifts of an army of wonderful supporters. We receive no government funding so everything Torch does is dependent on the generosity of people like you.
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.
We will send you our Torch News magazine four times a year, full of encouraging stories, updates and information on how you can get involved. Our quarterly prayer diary is included to give you a daily guide on how you can pray for the ministry of Torch.
Torch provides advice, support, opportunities for fellowship and library services free of charge to registered blind and partially sighted people. Help us to keep it that way by contributing your gift to continue the ministry.

Torch is enabling churches across the UK to include people with sight loss in every aspect of church life.
Torch Trust can help your church to become more aware of how to support people with sight loss. We can help you become more accessible and more able to confidently engage everyone in your church, and those who would like to join.
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.
Join our network of churches across the UK to access training, advice and be added to our Sight Loss Friendly Church map.
