Fundraising

If you would like to arrange a fundraising event for Fighting for Sight or if you would like to become a volunteer to help the charity in any way we would like to hear from you.  Please email moragh.gibb@nhs.net for further information or contact Dr Vikki McBain telephone 01224 552543 email v.a.mcbain@abdn.ac.uk

If you can donate any books, bric-a-brac, toiletries, toys etc to “Fighting for Sight”, this will help us raise money as we have a shop within the waiting area in the Eye Outpatient Department.

Money for mobiles – Community Fonebak will pay Fighting for Sight money for old mobile phones.  Please deposit your old mobile in the box which is displayed in the Eye Outpatient waiting area or send it to Moragh Gibb at the Eye Outpatients.

Fighting for Sight has collecting cans that you can put into a shop for collections.  Penny rollers are available too.  If you would like one contact Moragh Gibb or Vikki McBain.
