✨ The Gift of Eyesight ✨

A little while back, we asked the kids of Stoke Newington to draw us their interpretation of the gift of eyesight - a way to start conversations about eye health, regular check-ups, and looking after young eyes.

At our recent wine & nibbles evening - where we got to host the brilliant artists from the whose work has been living on our practice walls, four of the artists took on judging duties. After much deliberation they crowned two joint winners, Nyssa and Ellen!

then took both drawings and wove them into the beautiful repeating patterns you see here.

We are in the process of having these printed onto lens cleaning cloths, available in store over the coming months, with every single penny from the cloths going to Hackney Foodbank 💛

Huge thank you to everybody who entered, to the Chocolate Factory artists for judging and creating, and to everyone who came along to make the evening what it was.
Pop in soon, grab a cloth, clean your specs and feed a neighbour.

Hello Stokey!

I’m Ajay, Optometrist and Partner at Askew Eyewear. Askew has been part of Stokey for 20 years this year! 🎉🥳

Askew has moved to a new premises on Church Street, almost opposite the fire station and a few doors away from Rasa 😋, we’re still the charming and caring crew but in a fresher, brighter and larger premises ❤️

One of the many things we love about Stokey is the genuine community feel, and we always want to get involved. So, we thought we’d send a message and advice to all parents about children’s eye health, specifically the concerning trend with an increasing number of children needing glasses for short sightedness, which can affect eye health in the long term. We’ve got a really cool competition for the children to take part which we hope will get children looking after their eyes and help with raising funds for Hackney Food Bank. It’s all detailed in the message, please do get your children to take part 🙏 
We’ve extending the deadline for the entries to 15 May! 

We’re really excited to receiving the artworks, thanking everyone in advance!
