Colour vision deficiency is not a disability, but it becomes one when a school, an exam board or an employer refuses to make room for it. This is where our work began.
Colour vision
A colour vision test is often the first time anyone mentions it — and it arrives as a rejection letter, not a diagnosis. By then a course has been lost, or a licence, or a job offer.
Who it is for: Students, parents, teachers and adults who have just been told, or have never been tested.
What We Do
A free colour vision test, in a camp or by appointment. It takes minutes.
Which type, what it actually affects, and — just as important — what it does not.
The certificates and documentation an exam board or employer will ask for.
We work with the school so worksheets, boards and lab work stop being the barrier.
In Detail
Colour vision testing for children and adults, run in schools, colleges and community centres.
Practical sessions so teachers can recognise colour vision deficiency and adapt how they teach and test.
Simple changes to worksheets, boards, labs and seating that let a student keep up without being singled out.
Help for parents who have just been told, and for adults who have known for years and never had anywhere to ask.
Guidance on the certificates and paperwork needed for exams, courses and job applications.
What People Say
“One test decided I could not do the course, and I thought that was the end of it. They went through the actual rule with me, helped me appeal, and stayed in touch until I was back in class.”
“They did not just give a speech and leave. They came back, checked what we had applied for, and helped two of us fix our forms. That follow-up is what made the difference.”
“The session changed how our whole staff room talks about children who see colour differently. Worksheets and lab work were redesigned within a month.”
“Our PoSH training was practical and human. People asked real questions for the first time, instead of sitting through slides waiting for it to end.”
“I found out at the camp that I am colour blind. Twenty years and nobody had ever tested me. They explained exactly which courses it affects and which it does not.”
“The workshop used real examples of people who had been through it, not slides. That is the part everyone in my class still talks about.”
“I had stopped going to class because it was easier than being looked at every day. Someone here listened first, without rushing me. I am back.”
“The certificates mattered for our compliance file, but the change in how managers speak to their teams is what we actually got out of it.”
