Hello and Welcome to Sight Life

Good morning everyone!

Please see the latest update from Glaucoma UK

This is the largest ever national survey of people affected by glaucoma, and even small actions from trusted organisations like yours can make a real difference to participation.
To help you get involved, we have a range of free promotional materials available to order here:
https://glaucoma.uk/product/glaucoma-uk-national-patient-voices-survey-promotional-materials/
These include posters, leaflets, screen designs and QR code cards that you can display in clinics, share digitally, or include in communications.

We also wanted to let you know that paper copies of the survey are now available for use in your workplace:
https://glaucoma.uk/product/national-patient-voices-survey-paper-copy/

While paper copies can be helpful for some people, we would encourage online completion wherever possible, as this reduces costs and supports more efficient data collection. The survey has been designed to be accessible for people with visual impairments.

As the survey launches, we’d be very grateful if
you might also consider:
• Including a short piece or link in any newsletters you produce
• Sharing the survey across your social media channels
• Adding a banner to the bottom of letters sent to people with glaucoma (we can provide this)
These simple steps can significantly increase awareness and help ensure a wide range of voices are heard.

If you have any questions please get in touch with Becky Burn
Training and Engagement Officer

Aaaah Lowri Madoc - this is amazing!! Thank you SO much! What an epic achievement!

400km in a month is huge by anyone's standards - that's over 13km per day! Huge well done and glad you're feeling fab for it too, Lowri!

Lowri's Justgiving page is over £1200 already, which means we can now fund 12 more vital home visits for people who are struggling with sight loss or who have recently been diagnosed to support them in remaining independent and in their own homes.

Every day we receive new referrals to people who have just received a sight loss diagnosis asking if we can help. Support from Fundraisers like Lowri's really does make a huge difference and we are so grateful for everyone's support. Every penny really does count.

Can we help her make it to £1500??

You can easily donate here to congratulate her and support Sight Life: www.justgiving.com/campaign/walkingchallengeinmemoryofruthmadoc

Thank you all!! x
