KAB’s Intervenor Service

Attention: open in a new window. Print

This service provides one-to-one person-centred support, and is designed for adults who are congenitally deafblind, and who have a learning disability or additional physical disabilities, resulting in complex needs.

Occasionally the service may also benefit a person with a single sensory impairment who also has significant additional disabilities, resulting in complex needs.

  • support to learn and develop communication skills using a range of communication methods; this may include symbolic representation, tactile sign systems, sensory references, objects of reference, picture exchange systems and hand under hand communication.
  • a specifically structured programme of activities to encourage social and personal development.
  • development and support of independence skills.
  • a professional sighted guiding service.
  • support with low vision aids and equipment.
