What we do

Our students learn how to cope with a noisy, busy world. Step-by-step, day-by-day every child at ChildVision is discovering new things they can achieve and do.

Community Services Programme

ChildVision were successful in a grant application to the Community Services Programme in December 2023. This is a much sought after fund, managed by Pobal and supported by the Department of Rural and Community Development. It will allow CanDo Enterprises to recruit a social enterprise manager and to create paid positions for people with vision impairment. These positions will be broken down into five or six part-time jobs so that we can support as many people as possible to enter the labour force.

There are specific milestones attached to the grant that include a undertaking a training needs analysis, providing accredited training as well as enterprise specific milestones, to increase our retailer network, install a refilling station and engage in business supports provided by Pobal.
