This Saturday I will be holding my first fundraising event in aid of my project to Uganda with Vision Aid Overseas, where I will be conducting eye examinations and distributing spectacles!
A Coffee Morning
Beverages, homemade cakes and cheese straws
Handmade cards for sale
Guess the number of sweets in the jar competition
at Harrold Opticians
61 East Street, Blandford Forum, Dorset
Saturday 23rd July from 9.30am
All are welcome to come along and support this worthy cause – and you could even get your spectacles serviced whilst enjoying your cake!
If you don’t live locally enough to come along, or would prefer to make a donation to support the project, I have a JustGiving page at http://www.justgiving.com/UgandaVision/





I think this is a really wonderful thing, and not a lot of people think about the importance of eye glasses, or think about the people who can’t afford them. I hope your fundraiser is a great success! Good luck!
