Story

Please help Fight for Sight end blindness and sight loss by fundraising for your adventure or by making a donation.   

Every day 250 people in the UK start to lose their sight.

Fight for Sight funds pioneering research into the treatment and prevention of sight loss to create a future everyone can see. We’ve pioneered many life-changing advances helping many people, but the reality is that a great deal more work is still needed. Currently Fight for Sight are only able to fund one in eight of the eye research projects they receive. Gene therapy and stem cells promise so much for the future, but if there’s not enough funding we’re never going to get an answer.

Ask your friends and family to sponsor your 10K journey into the centre of the eye. 

Your support could help us with the next big research breakthrough. Join the fight and end sight loss

Journey to the Centre of the Eye is a FREE audio led running, jogging or walking 10km event. Strap on your phone, plug in your headphones and step to it; the adventure unfolds as you move. Take part anywhere and at any time from the beginning of National Eye Health Week through to World Sight Day, 24 September to 11 October. Enter for free HERE   

We’re powering up the miniaturisation ray to shrink you down to size! You’ll chase a photon of light through the eye into the brain. Learning fun and fantastic facts about the wonders of your eyes that bring the world around you to light.
