If you have just a few pairs of spectacles that you would like to donate, check with your optician whether they collect them as many of our Lions Clubs have collection bins, and send them to us in bulk. You could send them directly to us at the address below but that would be at your own cost (we cannot use the courier service for small parcels). We do not collect cases so you can exclude them.

For Lions Clubs and other organisations with bulk spectacles they have collected, please follow the instructions which follow:

There are 2 methods of shipping spectacles to us:

• Bring them personally to our workshop at The Apuldram Centre (see map below) where the spectacles are sorted. A bin is located outside the gate into which the spectacles can be deposited. Let us know when you are coming and if possible we can welcome you and show you what we do.

• Send them free via Parcel Force to The Apuldram Centre.

1. Pack the specs loose in stout well sealed boxes, with a maximum weight of 10 kg
2. Address them to: Chichester Lions Club, c/o The Apuldram Centre, Common Farm, Appledram Lane South, Chichester, West Sussex, PO20 7PE

3.  Call Sue Boucher on 0344 963 2443 for latest instructions to contact Parcelforce. If you have used Parcelforce in the past please check details with Sue to ensure that the information is up to date.

4. Please include your name, club/organisation, date dispatched, and e-mail address (if possible), preferably on a separate sheet inside the parcel. Don’t worry if you do not receive an acknowledgement - with so many deliveries we are not always able to respond to them all, although we do try.

If you have any difficulty, please contact Lion Sue Boucher on 0344 963 2443 or e-mail us at sight@chilions.org.uk.

To avoid unnecessary handling, we would be grateful if you would throw away the following before shipment:

• Cases other than those in excellent condition.
• Loose lenses
• Broken or empty plastic frames
• Cleaning cloths
