Sightsavers not kidding around with charity auction

Celebrities including Liam Gallagher, Lewis Hamilton and Sir Michael Caine have donated a pair of their own glasses towards a charity auction by Sightsavers.

A selection of young lookalikes gathered for a photo-shoot by Rankin to promote the auction this week. Mini models of actress Sarah Jessica Parker (left) and singer Ellla Eyre (centre) were also captured by the photographer, who is a patron of the charity.

In total, 17 celebrities have donated spectacles for this year’s ‘Specs Appeal’ auction, which runs until August 13 on eBay. Other donors included model Kate Moss, singers Paul Weller, Annie Lennox and Cher, and actor Bill Nighy.
