The Helen Keller Society draws its inspiration from the outstanding achievements of our namesake, Helen Keller.
The Society’s principal aims and objectives are:
- to provide residential accommodation, including board and lodging and nursing care to sight-impaired persons, to aged persons (over the age of 60) or to persons who have retired by reason of ill-health or infirmity, preference being given to persons of impaired sight.
- to provide advice and assistance to persons of impaired sight within the surrounding community.
WHO WAS HELEN KELLER?
Helen Keller went deaf and
blind in early childhood.
The only world she
knew was dark and
quiet, yet she inspired
both able and disabled
and hearing people with
her positive outlook on life
