The Big Optometry Blog says thanks

After a summer of Sport editor in chief, Chris Bennett, thanks all of the support for SeeAbility and Blind Veterans and attempts a big swim

Here is an end of season update to thank everyone who supported Optician’s charity fundraising this year.

The main fundraising for Opticians sporting challenge was through the Alpe d’Huez triathlon and the Prudential Ride London100. The totals raised for @SeeAbility and @BlindVeteransUK stand at £830 and £610 respectively. I was unable to compete in the Sussex original tri due to a family birthday so there is one last event to tackle – this time for fun not charity.

Alongside the @Bolle_Eyewear Shifter cycling sunglass the events, and the training, have been a good opportunity to try out some multifocal contact lenses. I am also now recognisable in parts of Surrey thanks to my @CooperVision cycling kit and wide array of running and cycling eyewear from the likes of Marchon’s Nike, Hoya and adidas.
