Story

On Sunday 21st of April 2024 I'm running the London Marathon for the Royal Society for Blind Children (RSBC). 

As an Optometrist I have seen first hand the incredible impact that the RSBC has on people's lives when they need it most. I hope you will consider giving generously to support their vital work.

Today there are an estimated 44,000 blind and partially sighted children in England and Wales. Each day, four more children will be diagnosed with sight loss.Blind children are twice as likely to be bullied - One in three will suffer from depression and other mental health issues - 90% will never have a long-term job - Two thirds of blind people are living on or below the poverty line - Most will never have a meaningful relationship. RSBC help blind children to realise their potential. They run a family support service, working with families to help provide the best possible environment for their child to grow and thrive. They also help blind children to develop confidence and independence through a range of programmes and activities, building amazing friendships.
