BlindAid

BlindAid is London’s oldest charity supporting blind and visually impaired people, with more than 190 years of experience. Working across the inner London boroughs, the charity provides practical and emotional support through regular home visits, community projects and activities designed to reduce isolation and help people build confidence and independence.






Destination City

Our Sunday openings are possible thanks to a generous grant from the Destination City Parternship Fund.



Accessibility

There is regrettably no step-free access to Dr Johnson's House.

There are seven steps to access the entrance (with a handrail).

The building is a four-storey townhouse with a staircase between each floor.

There are handrails on each side of the staircase and visitor seating in every room.

Toilets are located down a steep set of stairs.
