Crisis offers direct support to people who are homeless or at risk of homelessness, helping people to rebuild their lives and leave homelessness behind for good.
Operating via local Skylight centres, the charity provides vital services including helping people to find a home, apply for jobs and look after their health and wellbeing.
Customers of Specsavers Swansea dropped off items at the store throughout the month, with staff members holding a fundraiser to purchase additional items before hand delivering them to their local Crisis Skylight.
Several of the store’s staff members, including retail director Chris Jones, spent the day at the Skylight to learn more about Crisis’ mission to end homelessness.
Chris says: “We’re proud to support Crisis this festive period and drive forward Specsavers’ commitment to ending homelessness and giving back to the local community.
“Thank you to all of our generous customers and staff who kindly donated to the collection. We hope that the donation makes a real difference to those who need it most.”
Specsavers Swansea is open seven days a week. To find out more and book an appointment, visit http://www.specsavers.co.uk/swansea.
Additionally, to make eye health accessible to all, the store offers a Home Visits service for those unable to leave their homes unaccompanied due to disability or illness.
