Opticians in Costa Blanca launch Christmas Food Collection
SPECSAVERS Ópticas stores across the Costa Blanca have teamed up to collect food donations for vulnerable people in the region.
The teams are collecting items throughout December to be donated to the Alicante Food Bank (Fundación Banco de Alimentos de Alicante) and are encouraging their local communities to give generously and ensure no one in the Alicante province goes hungry.
Lisa James, a store director at Specsavers Ópticas Guardamar, explains: ‘It’s that time of year where sadly some families will miss out on the festive cheer for various different reasons, but this year in particular the pandemic has had a devastating effect.
