Story

The Valli Rally is back and better than ever! 

On Saturday the 23rd of September 2023, our annual Valli Rally charity walk shall be taking place in order to raise money for one of our favourite charities - Outlookers.

This year the Valli Rally will be a 7.7-mile Huddersfield countryside walk, starting and finishing at Valli Opticians in Meltham (Holmfirth), with a stop at Valli Opticians in Netherton (Huddersfield) and Valli Opticians in Honley (Holmfirth) in between. There will be plenty of refreshments at during the stops and at the end.

Since being founded in 2008, Outlookers have run support services for people with visual impairments. As a member led organisation, their aim is to enhance the lives of those who are visually impaired through peer support and technology aid as well as breaking down stereotypes surrounding people with vision loss. They offer emotional support, and friendship and also provide training, helping people with visual impairments learn how confidently use and make the most of technology such as Amazon Alexa, Google Home and various apps for phones and tablets.
