Specsavers teams in Paisley and Barrhead completed a collective 10,000-step walking challenge, raising £722 for Sight Scotland Veterans.

The two stores aimed to raise £500 for the charity's local hub, The Hawkhead Centre, in Paisley, which supports veterans living with sight loss.

Gail Thompson, director at Specsavers Paisley, said: "The team worked so hard for this challenge to walk 10,000 steps, so it’s fantastic to see how their hard work has raised so much for a fantastic cause.

"Both our Paisley and Barrhead stores are local to The Hawkhead Centre, so we see first-hand how important the work that Sight Scotland Veterans carries out in providing care, support and safe social surroundings for our veterans with limited sight or sight loss.

"I want to thank everyone in our local community who helped us raise vital funds to donate to this incredible cause, which means so much to our colleagues in both Specsavers stores."

The Hawkhead Centre provides a safe space for veterans with sight loss to socialise and participate in supportive activities and projects.

Lorraine Bruce, hub coordinator for Sight Scotland Veterans’ Hawkhead Centre, said: "At Sight Scotland Veterans, we are incredibly grateful for the support shown by the teams at Specsavers in Paisley and Barrhead.

"Their dedication to raising funds through the 10,000-step challenge means so much to the veterans at our Hawkhead Centre."
