Vision Australia is a not-for-profit organisation and Australia's largest provider of services for people with blindness and low vision. Vision Australia was created in 2004 through the merger of the Royal Blind Society (RBS), the Royal Victorian Institute for the Blind (RVIB), Vision Australia Foundation (VAF), and the National Information Library Services (NILS) in July 2004. At the time, legislation needed to be passed through the parliaments of Victoria and New South Wales for this to occur. In 2006, the organisation was further expanded with the merger of the Royal Blind Foundation Queensland. This merger enabled greater access to the organisation across Queensland. Additionally, 2007 saw Hear a Book, a producer of audio books in Tasmania, join Vision Australia in November 2007. In February 2008 it was announced that the Seeing Eye Dogs Australia (SEDA) would also merge with Vision Australia by the end of June 2008. The inclusion of guide dog services meant that Vision Australia was now a national provider to the blindness and low vision community of assistive services. More information...
