Specsavers optician Nigel Davidson received a national honour last week as he was recognised with a British Citizens Award for his services to volunteering and charitable giving.

Davidson has been instrumental in raising thousands of pounds for several charitable causes, including the Royal National Institute of Blind People (RNIB). He also started the Ashfield Eyecare Services charity in 2014, which delivers free eye tests and glasses to the homeless.
