Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page and read our story.

In line with previous years where we choose a local charity to fundraise for, this years charity choice is personal to us. Earlier this year James was diagnosed with Macular Degeneration / Age related macular degeneration which affects the sight in his right eye. This is a genetic medical condition which usually affects older people, resulting in blurred or no vision in the centre of the visual field, complete blindness or the loss of central vision. This will make it hard for him to recognise faces, drive, read or general everyday activities that we may take for granted.

For now, James is having scans every 4 weeks and monitored by his consultant. As yet, there is no cure.

Vision North Somerset help to support over 1500 people living with sight loss (anat any stage) across North Somerset. Your donation makes all the difference to the work they can do.

So please, come, hang a bauble on our tree and donate. You will find us at 3 Seavale Road, Clevedon- BS21 7QB.

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. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Thank you for taking the time to read.
