Specsavers Opticas have just one month to reach their target to collect over 4,500 pairs of glasses for the Lions Clubs International. So far they have collected a little over 2,000 pairs, so they need a lot of support from their local community to reach their target.

This collection will change lives in areas where people desperately need access to glasses. After the glasses are donated in store they are sent to the Lions Club’s recycling plant in Alicante where they are first separated into single vision, bifocals, varifocals and sunglasses. They are then graded according to prescription strength, cleaned and boxed for distribution.

Lions Club representatives are located across many developing countries including Africa and India. They test the eyes of locals and send requests for the required prescription glasses onto the fulfilment plant and each pair of glasses will make a huge difference to someone.

Specsavers Opticas in Marbella is located on Avda. de Ricardo Soriano 12, Local 5A, near to 100 Montaditos and Massimo Dutti.

The campaign runs until 29th April 2015, call 952 863 332 or visit www.specsavers.es if you need further information.
