Since 1865, Seescape (formerly Fife Society for the Blind) has been empowering people with visual impairments to live safely and independently. Now, we invite you to be part of our extraordinary legacy by taking on your own 160 Challenge.
How It Works
The 160 Challenge is simple, flexible, and open to everyone:
- Choose your challenge – something that incorporates the number 160
- Register below – tell us what you’re planning to do
- Start your journey – fundraise with a target to raise £160, share your story, and make an impact
We have created a campaign on JustGiving for our 160 Challenge fundraisers!
