If you have a question about an existing or past donation please call our customer services team at 01444 446600.

Here are some examples of how much treatment costs:

£3 a month could protect 25 villagers from river blindness every month
£5 a month could buy a lens every month which is needed to replace a cataract
£10 a month could treat 8 people a month suffering from trachoma
£17 a month could restore sight to a cataract sufferer each month
£20 a month could help run an outreach clinic, bringing urgent eyecare to rural villages

If you want to try a different way of helping to save sight, why not think about giving (or asking for) one of our new online gift vouchers ?
