I have been a member of the Macular society for 16 years since having to retire from general practice due to developing dry Macular Disease in both eyes in my mid forties. I have received great help and  support from the society over the years and I would like to give something back. Particularly to raise money to fund research to develop future treatments.

Macular disease is the main cause of sight loss in the developed world and affects people of all ages. It’s a condition no one should have to suffer from. The Macular Society is the only charity determined to beat the fear and isolation of macular disease with world-class research, and the best advice and support. We fund new research into better treatments and, ultimately, a cure so that future generations won’t suffer from sight loss caused by macular disease. In the meantime, we continue to help people of all ages adapt to life with sight loss, by supporting them to regain confidence and independence. No-one, of any age, should have to put up with the distressing and frightening impact of macular disease without support. No-one should feel isolated, forgotten or written off after a diagnosis of macular disease. We offer advice and information, professional counselling for the newly diagnosed, telephone befriending, training, and (during normal times) more than 400 support groups around the UK.

Some musician friends & I are organising a virtual music and poetry recital via Zoom.  We hope you can join us. There is no charge for entry but you can make a donation to the Macular Society via Just Giving if you'd like to 

Thank you, hope to see you on what should be a very entertaining evening
