ECPs head from capital to coast

Eye care professionals working in Kingston upon Thames, Surbiton and Putney have raised £4,000 in aid of the Down’s Syndrome Association by taking part in the LA Fitness Capital to Coast Cycle.

Eight staff from Specsavers Kingston upon Thames, six from Specsavers Surbiton and six from Specsavers in Putney took on the 60 mile cycle from London to Brighton in June.

Alison Morgan, fundraising manager at The Down’s Syndrome Association, said: ‘We are absolutely delighted with the support we have received from so many local Specsavers and are very impressed that they took on such a tough challenge. They have raised a huge amount in a short period of time and this money will go directly towards vital services for children and adults with Down’s syndrome.’
