We fund pioneering research to prevent sight loss and treat eye disease

Story

As many of you know, I picked up an eye injury in January playing Squash and was very lucky not to lose sight in my right eye. Whilst sounding horribly cliche, the ordeal really made me appreciate how important, complex and incredible vision is. I'm therefore raising money for Fight for Sight - an eye research charity - to do my little bit to support the prevention of sight loss (they don't fund squash goggles!).

The 'eye2eye challenge' will start at the London Eye on Saturday 26th May and finish 60 miles south at the Brighton i360 (yes, the title of the challenge is sensational wordplay). Over the course of 2 days, a fantastic group of pals and I will be walking through South London, over the North / South Downs, swinging past The Amex and into Brighton by the Sunday night. That's 150,000 steps in 36 hours, and assumes we don't spend too much time walking down the hard shoulder of the A23. 

If you're able to donate any amount of money, that'll be awesome. 

Thanks

Adam
