Sense's vision is of a world in which all deafblind children and adults can be full and active members of society. Their purpose is to work in partnership with others – deafblind people, their families, carers and professionals – to ensure that everyone challenged by deafblindness or sensory impairment with other disabilities, has access to advice, opportunities and support.

Sense services include on-going support for deafblind people and families. These range from day services where deafblind people have the opportunity to learn new skills and Sense-run houses in the community – where people are supported to live as independently as possible.

Sense communicator-guides offer a vital lifeline to deafblind people living in their own homes. They also provide leading specialist advice, for example on education options and assistive technology.
