Essilor team completes Bristol Half Marathon

A team of 17 runners from Essilor completed the Bristol Half Marathon on 15 September, raising money for one of its chosen charities, Vision Aid Overseas.

The event is one of many fundraising events that Essilor’s team members take part in every year. The Bristol Half Marathon team was made up of members from various departments at Essilor’s Thornbury site. 

Managing director at Essilor, Mike Kirkley, said: “Essilor’s mission is improving lives by improving sight and the company has been a supporter of Vision Aid Overseas for many years. I’m delighted the team collectively raised over £600 to further help the charity which demonstrates our commitment to our mission.”
