Re-cycled Spectacles Collection Re-launched |
|||
Lion Brian Davies |

The collection boxes have all been cleaned and re-signed. The new sign-age includes the clubs free phone number and web site details so that the staff at the collection points can contact the club to arrange for the box to be emptied if they get full before the scheduled by monthly planned collection. The 16 collection boxes are sited in Doctors Surgeries, Opticians and Pharmacies in and around Malvern, Colwall and Ledbury. 3 of the 16 boxes are in new sites. Lion Brian Davies is the clubs collection co-coordinator. He boxes the spectacles up and sends them to Chichester Lions where they are polished, classified according to prescription and then distribute to those in need. Lion Brian has calculated that over the decade the club has been collecting spectacles he has sent off over 25,000 pairs. http://www.malverngazette.co.uk/news/local/8451500.Lions_once_again_focus_on_spectacles_appeal/ If anyone does have spectacles that they would like to donate, please contact your local Lions Club for details of where to take them. |
