Practice staff complete running feat

A combined effort by staff at Specsavers Teignmouth covered 100km by foot and raised £900 for charity this year.

They were pictured here after their final race - The Great South Run - which also saw pre-registration optometrist Emma Houldey (second from left) run a personal best of one hour 20 minutes.

Simon Simmonds, store director of Specsavers Teignmouth, said: 'It has been a huge challenge to run these four Great Runs. The team are proud of their achievements and really enjoyed undertaking the fundraising activities.'

The store also drummed up support for fundraising by holding cake sales, raffles and dressing up days. Donations have been made to RNLI Torbay, Cancer Research UK (CRUK), Diabetes UK and Guide Dogs charities.
