Donna Power to leave OGS

Donna Power has announced plans to leave Optometry Giving Sight after six years with the charity.

Power, regional manager Europe, was to move on by the end of August and thanked the optical community for all the support it had offered to OGS.

The charity has appointed David Shannon to continue her work together with fundraising officer Sarah Namusobya.

Last month Shannon urged the optical sector back the Optics Cycling for Sight campaign, and will lead a fundraising team co-ordinating events around this year’s World Sight Day Challenge.

The charity has set an overall target of raising £25,000 by covering a combined distance of 25,000 miles.
