Who deserves to be seen?

Local eye clinic launches campaign offering life-changing prize

Do you know someone who has given a great deal to the community and who deserves the reward of free vision correction treatment?

This could become a reality thanks to a new community campaign launching in Brighton and surrounding areas today, giving residents the chance to recognise and reward the unsung heroes making a real difference in their local area.

Celebrating inspirational individuals

Leading local eye care provider Optegra Eye Clinic Brighton is one of the first locations in the country to launch its ‘Who Deserves To Be Seen?’ campaign. Over the next four weeks (up to 26 June) you can nominate and celebrate inspirational individuals who go above and beyond to support their community.

Members of the public are invited to nominate someone they believe deserves recognition – whether they are a dedicated volunteer, community leader, or simply someone who consistently helps others.  They simply need to live within 30 miles of Brighton and should want to improve their vision by reducing their reliance on glasses or contact lenses.

The winner will receive free vision correction treatment at Optegra Eye Clinic Brighton (subject to clinical suitability), alongside public recognition for their contribution through local media profile.

Julia Warnes, Clinic Manager at Optegra Eye Clinic Brighton, said: “We know every community has individuals who quietly make a huge difference to the lives of others – whether giving their time, energy, care or resources – and often having a big heart!  This campaign is about shining a spotlight on those people and giving them something meaningful back as a thank you from the community. We’re delighted to be launching this initiative in Brighton and can’t wait to celebrate and reward the people behind the stories.”

Nominations open now

Nominations are open from 29 May – 26 June, with the winner announced on Friday 26 June. Residents can find full details on how to nominate, along with entry criteria and campaign updates, via https://www.optegra.com/localhero/
