Solid date announced for Wobbly Wednesday

This year’s Wobbly Wednesday campaign to raise awareness of eye condition nystagmus has been scheduled for November 5.

Supporters can download posters and activities from the Nystagmus Network website, while a grant of £10,000 was available for research into the condition, characterised by involuntary movements of the eyes.

Richard Wilson, Nystagmus Network chairman, said: ‘Last year our supporters rose to the challenges of raising awareness and surpassed our expectations and we thank them all for their hard work.’

‘We admire the courage that our younger supporters showed in explaining to their peers what it’s like to have nystagmus. The dedication of our fundraisers means that from this year forward we can award a new nystagmus research grant of £10,000.’
