Sight Saver Stop Press: The Sight Saver Appeal is producing unbelievable results - if the totaliser target is reached today, five mobile eye units will soon be in operation saving sight and preventing blindness in Malawi, Tanzania and Nigeria; and two medical motorbikes will be in action in The Gambia, taking ophthalmic assistants to remote country districts where urgent eye care is needed. Remember, just £1 can save one person's sight, so if your bring-and-buy sale is still to come, the appeal will make good use of the proceeds and provide even more badly-needed help.
