Recipient Org: Description Oxpots is a small group who meet weekly in term time . It is aimed at providing adult blind and partially sighed people the opportunity to experiment with clay. With the help of a fully qualified potter and volunteers, members are encouraged to work on self directing projects. This involves such skills as coiling, slabbing, sculpting and glazing. The sessions last for 3 hours and there is an opportunity to talk with other members about their disabilities and how they cope on a daily basis. They are able to share experiences and inform others about different facilities or equipment that may be available. It offers support and encouragement in regaining confidence and rejuvenating members after sight loss. We encourage members to display their items at local events and venues and also arrange visits to museums where they can experience "hands on" sessions for the partially sighted. Transport is provided by volunteers and carers along with tea/coffee and homemade cake.
