Moving Forward Together

A Residential Learning holiday to Cromer

The NNAB is planning a residential learning holiday at the Virginia Court Hotel, Cromer, October 16^th – 18^th 2012. Our previous holidays here have been very successful and we look forward to welcoming guests again this year.

This mini-break will include sessions addressing issues surrounding sight loss. An evening of local entertainment will be included, as well as two breakfasts, two evening meals and one lunch.

We would like to invite applications from visually impaired people and their partners who wish to learn more about life as a VIP. If you book as a single person please be aware that there are only a limited number of single rooms available and after that a single supplement of £50 will be payable.

The total cost (inclusive) will be £210 per person.

 If you think you may be interested I would love to hear from you as soon as possible.
