Really chuffed to have received a thank you card this week from a patient who was happy with her eye exam and new specs…

“Mr Lucas… you put me at ease and made the process easy… choosing two new pairs of frames was made enjoyable by your wonderful staff. You are all a blessing. My specs were immediately comfortable and life-changing… it is truly wonderful”.

We love getting feedback like this - thank you Ms T! ❤️

🎼 Here we go again 🎼

Our second silent auction raising funds for the RNIB has officially launched and we are so happy to unveil Charles’ latest donation to the cause. This beautiful photograph was taken in southern Spain when the trees were all out in blossom... needless to say it’s gorgeous 🥰

This silent auction is currently scheduled to run until the end of June, so feel free to come in to practice to place your bids!
And please remember, for the RNIB, there is no bid too big or too small 💛

🎉 We have a winner! 🎉

A little late on the announcement but we are thrilled to announce that our silent auction was won by a lovely patient of ours who came to take her beautiful landscape home recently. She was the winning bidder at £100 meaning she is now the lucky owner of this fabulous photo by Charles Waite. On this occasion, we as a practice have matched this donation, meaning a total of £200 was raised for the RNIB through this silent auction! 😍
Due to the success of this auction, Charles has donated another landscape which will also be auctioned. We will post a sneak peak at the new photo over the weekend... 👀🌸🌺🌸

Feeling grateful to have received a Friday treat from one of our lovely patients today 🥰 It is a thank you present for helping her Mum last week when she had a fall and needed some help. Safe to say, the biscuits will go down a treat over the weekend - thank you! 🍪

🌍 Happy Earth Day 🌍

As we take a day to celebrate this wonderful planet we live on, we couldn’t think of a better day to launch our new range of frames, Sea2See 💛

Made from recycled marine plastic such as fishing nets, each frame helps us take a step closer to making our oceans cleaner and plastic-free. And even better, each frame come with a case made from cork - zero plastic waste 😍

Who said spectacles can’t be eco conscious 😉

Pop in to our Gillingham practice to see this fabulous range for yourselves!
