Wiesbaden Offers Support and Awareness for the Visually Impaired
The State Capital Wiesbaden is taking strides to support the visually impaired community with two significant initiatives: the "Blickpunkt Auge" program and the Belle Wi exhibition.
The "Blickpunkt Auge" offer, organised by the Association of the Blind and Visually Impaired in Hesse, aims to provide answers to individual questions about seeing and vision loss. Contact information for this initiative can be found at (0611) 34187612 or [email protected].
The Belle Wi exhibition, a separate initiative from the State Capital Wiesbaden, focuses on designing accessible apartments. This model exhibition showcases practical ways to design an apartment comfortably and barrier-free, offering valuable insights into creating disability-friendly living spaces. Guided tours for groups at Belle Wi are possible by appointment. More information about Belle Wi can be found at www.our website.de/belle-wi.
The "Blickpunkt Auge" model exhibition features various assistive devices, including speaking devices, digital magnifiers, voice assistants, and screen readers. It is open to the public, and no registration is required for the free consultation.
For those seeking advice on using a smartphone with visual impairments, Thomas Sauer provides helpful tips. Contact information for Thomas Sauer can be found at the same contact details provided for "Blickpunkt Auge".
Citizens can also contact the responsible department, office, or the switchboard of the town hall with questions as a general contact option for the city. For press-related inquiries, please contact the Press Office of the State Capital Wiesbaden at pressereferat@our website.de.
These initiatives demonstrate Wiesbaden's commitment to fostering an inclusive and accessible environment for all its citizens.
