Egg-cellent Easter fundraiser

A THAME opticians Easter fundraiser and colouring competition proved to be an egg-cellent success.

Specsavers on the High Street in Thame raised more than £150 for the British Heart Foundation by raffling off a giant 1.5kg Easter egg. Eleven-year-old Mortimer was the lucky winner who got to take home the chocoholics delight.

Alongside the raffle, the store also ran a colouring competition for local primary school children. Katy, aged six, and Emily, aged 11, were crowned worthy winners and each got to take home an Easter goody pack.

‘A big thank you to everyone who took part in the raffle, helping us to support the British Heart Foundation,’ says Specsavers Thame store director, Neil Perry. ‘We were also incredibly impressed with the quality of entries in the colouring competition – clearly there’s some budding young artists in Thame!’

In line with guidance from the NHS, Specsavers is keeping safety measures in place, including the wearing of face coverings, unless there is a medical exemption. This includes maintaining social distancing in stores, continuing to use PPE and sanitising all testing equipment and frames before and after each use. Doors will be kept open whenever possible to improve ventilation and although card payments are still preferred, cash payments will be accepted too.
