How your fundraising helps us

Fundraising and events

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.
