Games continue

An eye care charity has supported a Homeless Games event for disadvantaged people in Liverpool. Vision Care for Homeless People (VCHP) linked up with Crisis Merseyside to dispense spectacles during the event, providing 21 pairs in total. The team of eye care professionals who volunteered included optical assistant Amanda Grewal (pictured), while supplies were provided by Optoplast, Hoya and The Outside Clinic. Shaneela Chana, VCHP organiser, said: 'The majority who took part in the games were under 25 and living in hostels which really brought to light their vulnerability. It was very worthwhile attending and to be able to highlight the charity in this part of the country.'
