Huddersfield-based The Body Doctor has donated eye health products to a charity which helps homeless people or those at risk of homelessness.
The company has supported Vision Care for Homeless People (VCHP), which operates from 10 clinics across the UK and also works with Specsavers staff who visit hostels and other centres across West and East Yorkshire.
Sam Wymer, co-founder of The Body Doctor, handed over a product donation worth £2,500 to help the service to improve eye health.
The donation consisted of 120 bottles of The Eye Doctor Hypochlorous Eyelid Cleansing Spray, a hypoallergenic spray with antibacterial properties, and 120 bottles of The Eye Doctor Intensive Relief Eye Drops.
These products are designed to offer relief from common eye conditions, providing much-needed care to those who may not have regular access to eye health services.
Sam said: “We’re committed to supporting this service for the benefit of our local community.
“Eye health is often overlooked, especially for vulnerable individuals, and we’re pleased to offer products that will make a real difference.”
Tony Wing, project manager for VCHP, said: “This support from The Body Doctor allows us to extend our services further, ensuring that more people can receive essential eye care treatment.
“Access to proper eye health services is a challenge for many of the people we work with, and this donation will go a long way in providing relief, to those most at need.
“This hopefully marks the start of a long-term partnership between The Body Doctor and VCHP, with both organisations committed to improving the well-being of individuals who are often under-served.”
