Future Eye Matter Outings
Eye Matter outings meet at a London station, where you will be met by a guide if you haven’t brought your own, and taken to the venue. You will be guided back to the station after the event and handed over to station staff as necessary for further assistance.
We do theatre, museums, music venues, comedy and sporting activities and are always open to new suggestions.
