The South African Mobility for the Blind Trust (SAMBT) specialises in Independence training for blind and partially-sighted people. We were formed in 1998 and are a registered Non-profit Organisation. We have an outreach approach and we operate nationally in areas that are under-served or not served at all, i. e. rural areas and townships. Our programmes are community-based and we also run programmes at schools for the blind.

We provide educational intervention to children with autism between the ages of 2 and 12. The emphasis is on small classes, customised and autistic-specific curricula and individual attention. We use a variety of interventions such as ABA, TEACCH, eC, Makaton, Gemiini, Lego 6 bricks, social stories, Floortime, iPads and PECS. We offer occupational therapy and speech and language therapy at the school.
