This public health campaign is designed to raise awareness of the importance of good eye care, and organisers aim to &#8220;build strong community networks&#8221; to share eye health advice and help make eye care a priority.<\/p>\n<p>David Cartwright chair of Eye Health UK, the charity responsible for running the Week, comments: \u201cThis year we\u2019re working with LOCs, public health teams and others to build strong community networks who\u2019ll use their reach and influence to share essential eye health advice and explain why regular routine sight tests are vital for everyone. In addition to amplifying our messaging, the creation of these networks will help add eye care to the mix of new neighbourhood health priorities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Over the seven days, the campaign will educate people about how to look after their eyes and inspire them to take action to protect their vision and prevent avoidable sight loss in the future.<\/p>\n<p>Each day of the campaign week will focus on a different theme including: primary eye care services, children\u2019s eye health, sports vision, eyes at work, ageing eyes, and \u2018live well to see well.\u2019 Organisers will share a toolkit of resources in September for community networks, stakeholders, and NEHW supporters.\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:info@visionmatters.org.uk\">Those interested in supporting the campaign can register for a free promotional toolkit by emailing their name, business name, and contact details to organisers.<\/a>\u00a0Donations can also be made by emailing organisers. There are many ways of getting involved including displaying posters etc. to liaising with healthcare providers such as opticians to organise an awareness event. You can also access resources including a toolkit with hard copy and digital resources such as posters, leaflets, flyers, website and social media content <a href=\"https:\/\/www.visionmatters.org.uk\/news\/news\/post\/184-national-eye-health-week-is-back-for-2025\">HERE<\/a>.
