SPECSAVERS Milton Keynes is geared up for some fun at the 50th Newport Pagnell Carnival this weekend.
A team of professional advisors will be on-hand on Saturday (July 4) to test visitors’ vision and hearing.
The store is also the proud sponsor of the popular Big Duck Race that takes place on Sunday 5 July.
Specsavers Milton Keynes, located in thecentre:mk, is thrilled to offer its services outside the traditional environment of its store.
Local residents can simply pop along to the stall at Riverside Meadow on Saturday to check whether their eyesight and hearing is good enough to be on the road – all for free!
Visitors will be given a long distance vision screen test, a three-minute hearing test and asked a series of questions regarding their attitudes to sight and hearing difficulties.
All attendees to the Specsavers stand will be invited to try on an extensive selection of new, fashionable frames and also take advantage of numerous giveaways and money off vouchers that will be given out during the day.
There will also be a raffle offering a pair of Designer frames as one of the prizes.
Tickets cost just £1 on the stand, which will then be donated to a local charity.
Callum Biggs, store director of Specsavers in Milton Keynes, says: ‘We’re delighted to be part of the Newport Pagnell’s 50th Carnival and bring our professional services to as many people as possible in the region.
‘Driving when your eyesight is below the legal standard means you are at risk to yourself and other motorists.
“It is imperative we continue to raise awareness of the importance of having regular eye examinations and hearing tests.
“We urge anyone who is concerned about their sight to book an eye examination or speak to our staff on the Specsavers stand.’
