A team of optometry undergraduates from Aston University recently volunteered to act as marshals for Knowle Lions Club’s five mile fun-run.
Jon Antonio, Ramita Anand, Rosie Pattison and Emma Percy (pictured left to right) helped marshal the 2,000 runners participating in the event, raising more than £50,000 for the charity - which plans to make a £10,000 donation to the Vision Care for Homeless People’s clinic in Birmingham.
The clinic said it had recently benefitted from equipment donations from Mainline Instruments and Haag Streit, and added that it was always keen to hear from OOs and DOs interested in volunteering.
