Call out for old specs 🤓

Optometrists from Cardiff University say “thank you”. They are taking 1000 used specs to Malawi to support the local community. Many have come from our practice.

If you have any unused specs please drop them into the practice. They are looking to collect another thousand by 16th May. Any that can’t be used will be sent to be recycled back into new materials and put back into the manufacturing process. We take cases too.

Please share so we can collect as many as possible.

Today is International Guide Dog Day 🐾

Guide dogs do so much more than lead the way — they provide independence, confidence, and life-changing support to people with visual impairments.

It’s also a great reminder to look after your own eye health. Regular eye tests and the right glasses can make a world of difference in how you see and experience everyday life.

If it’s been a while since your last check-up, consider booking an appointment with your local optician or exploring options for glasses that suit your needs and lifestyle.

Let’s celebrate these incredible dogs and take a step toward better vision for everyone. 👓💛
