Sightsavers is an international charity working in more than 30 countries to prevent avoidable blindness, support equality for people with disabilities and advocate for change. Worldwide 2.2 billion people have a visual impairment, but almost half of this is preventable or treatable. We believe nobody should be blind from avoidable causes, and we want everybody, no matter where they live, to be able to access eye treatment when they need it, regardless of who they are or where they live.
It’s amazing to think that the difference between sight and blindness for someone with cataracts is as little as £28. Or to pay for lid surgery to end the pain for someone suffering with advanced trachoma is only £97.
Your can help us change lives by fundraising for and supporting Sightsavers. The money you raise will help fund crucial projects in some of the poorest parts of the world. We work hard to prevent sight loss, restore sight and fight for the rights of people with disabilities to go to school, find a job and take part fully in society.
Thank you and welcome to the Sightsavers fundraising team!
