We offer support, advice and information to UK families affected by retinoblastoma

Story

You may be aware that Ant’s daughter, Elise, was sadly diagnosed with Retinoblastoma (Rb) in August and is currently undergoing treatment which involves regular chemotherapy and multiple other medical interventions. Rb is a rare childhood eye cancer that normally develops in children under the age of five and inevitably has a significant impact on both the child and their families. Our thoughts are obviously with Ant, Emma, Raphi and Elise at this very difficult time. 

We have chosen the Childhood Eye Cancer Trust our employee charity for the next twelve months. The charity provides much needed support for those affected by Rb and raises awareness of this condition so that sight and eyes can be saved. Funds are also provided for research purposes.

Thank you in advance for your donations - no amount is too small (or too large!)!

Crazy Glasses Day is taking place on Tuesday 16 May, during World Retinoblastoma Awareness week. Your donations are hugely appreciated – give at least £10 to claim a pair of crazy glasses from the Twenty Essex team, to join in the fun!
