Garry began receiving support from Blind Veterans UK in 2016, and has since received training and equipment from the charity, as well as enjoying the camaraderie of meeting other blind veterans.

Garry says: “It was life-changing. A truly amazing experience. It sounds so daft, but being able to ask questions like, ‘How do you put toothpaste on your toothbrush?’ without fear of judgement, was fantastic.”
