Dare to wear yellow and organise a Wear Yellow Day at your workplace or club.

You could even hold a virtual Wear Yellow Day with others if you can't be together.

Your club or community organisation can raise funds to help Beat Macular Disease either by choosing us as your Charity of the Year or by holding a one-off fundraising event.

Have you ever thought of organising an event like a ball?

Why not hold an Eye Ball and fundraise to help Beat Macular Disease!

Macular disease is the biggest cause of sight loss in the UK, with around 300 people diagnosed every day. It steals your sight, your confidence, and your ability to do the things you love. It can affect people of any age — even children — but not enough is known about why, and there is still no cure.
