Children’s Campaign Winners – September 2012

Following a successful open day on 22nd September, to promote the importance of children’s eyecare, lots of children left happy with a balloon and some sweets, and hopefully parents a little better informed about how important children’s eyesight is.

The general public judged the competition for local reception class children, to design a mosaic of the eye using any materials they wished. The winner was St Paul’s Primary School on Queens Road in Spalding. Their mosaic was very ingenious, using the “eye” of a Peacock feather as the iris (coloured part of the eye). On Wednesday 26th September, Andy Molsom and Bridget Scase from Molsom Opticians presented them with a cheque for £50 to go towards the cost of the Outdoor Stage they are making. All of the children also went home with some sweets.

Spaldings’ Independent Optician celebrates 15th Anniversary. – August 2012

Fifteen years ago local Optician Andy Molsom opened his first independent community practice in Spalding. From the outset it was his aim to offer exceptional eye care and eye wear at value for money prices to local people. Since establishment the business has gone from strength to strength. Commenting he said “We have always been focused – if you’ll excuse the pun – on providing local people with exceptional eye care and eye wear at value for money prices from an independent practice. When so much money is spent every year by the optical chains promoting a two for one or 50% discount offer we believe the health aspects of optometry are often missed. Most people believe their eye sight is their most important sense and we take pride in putting eye health first every time”.
