Parents and carers
Teresa Kay is mum to Rhiannon who was born with a rare eye condition, Aniridia. She enjoys our Young Eyes activities, Rainbow Sparks:
“Young Eyes has been a life-saver and it’s been amazing to meet other families going through similar experiences – we have made some fantastic friends. I know Vision Norfolk will help to support Rhiannon’s needs as she grows.”
Volunteers
Zoe Tinkler is a volunteer who drives and supports clients on activities at our King’s Lynn community hub:
“Everything impresses me about Vision Norfolk and it’s lovely to have a voice and be included in the charity’s plans for the future. I see first-hand how happy it makes clients to spend time enjoying sociable activities and learning new skills.”
Champions
North Walsham optician Richard Morris plans to run a marathon to raise funds for Vision Norfolk:
“I took up running because I wanted to be slimmer and healthier – now I am doing it to raise money for an amazing local charity.”
