Specsavers Optical Group have recently donated £2,000 to the student kitchen at ÐÔÊӽ紫ý House providing vital food supplies to University of ÐÔÊӽ紫ý and Islands (ÐÔÊӽ紫ý) students.
The donation supports the student kitchen initiative which provides free food items during the cost-of-living crisis. Alison MacPherson, Head of Optometry, who worked with Specsavers to set up the initiative, said:
“We are incredibly grateful to Specsavers for supporting this initiative, which has been very welcomed by our optometry students.”
“The cupboards are readily stocked for students to help themselves 7 days a week whenever needed and ensures they are able to access free breakfast and lunches with no stigma.”
