BENEVOLENT FUND

The Benevolent Fund exists to alleviate financial hardship for optometrists and their dependents. Assistance may be offered to beneficiaries for the short or long term. The funds are mostly derived from donations from the Association of Optometrists (AOP) and the College of Optometrists but we also receive donations from individuals or occasionally via legacies. The fund is administered by ten Honorary Trustees appointed by the AOP and the College. The Trustees are members of the optometric profession with considerable experience in the optical sector... We are here to give assistance to any eligible person, couple or family who is in need and fit our criteria... If you are in need of financial support we will be delighted to hear from you. We can come and see you at your home, if you wish, to see if we can help. There is no charge to you for this visit, and our experienced team may be able to offer more than just money.
