Avon Local optical Committee

@AvonLOC are back at uni this morning, attending the @UWE Optometry Freshers' Fair to talk to first and second year students about the purpose and work of LOCs and @LOCSU. Obviously we brought chocolate.

We've just attended an @LOCSU comms Forum with special guests from @Eye Health UK talking all things National Eye Health Week. We've had a sneak peak of the daily focuses and resources and they look fantastic. visionmatters.org.uk
