My story
Optoms Cycling for Sight is a 12-day long World Sight Day Challenge, which will take cyclists from Plymouth to Glasgow between August the 27th and September the 7th, linking all UK optometry departments.
The World Sight Day Challenge is a global fundraising campaign coordinated by Optometry Giving Sight in the UK.
The charity funds eye care services in communities where they do not exist, ensuring sustainable, lasting results in three ways: training of local eye care professionals; establishment and support of vision centres and schools of optometry; delivery of affordable eye care and low cost glasses. 670 million people worldwide are blind or vision impaired simply because they don’t have access to an eye examination and a pair of glasses. Optometry Giving Sight funds the solution.
Optoms Cycling for Sight aims to get all optometry students involved in fundraising to help eliminate uncorrected refractive error.
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
So please dig deep and donate whatever you can.

Thank you to everyone who has donated so far. Training could certainly be better but we have a fantastic day for it today! Will be a lot easier when the Olympics is over and I can tear myself away from the tv!
