"Wij zijn Bartiméus. Wij zijn er voor alle mensen in Nederland die slechtziend of blind zijn. Ook als ze een meervoudige beperking hebben of problemen ervaren met zien door bijvoorbeeld niet aangeboren hersenletsel. Met 1.800 medewerkers en ruim 800 vrijwilligers stellen wij alles in het werk om mogelijk te maken dat mensen met een visuele beperking het leven kunnen leiden dat bij hen past. Dat is ambitieus. Maar voor minder doen we het niet.We doen veel aan onderzoek, diagnostiek en behandeling. We begeleiden en adviseren door het hele land. We hebben eigen scholen, woonvoorzieningen en vormen van dagbesteding."
