Make A Spectacle Of Yourself For Charity!

Aldershot Town are supporting Specsavers Opticians’ annual Spectacle Wearer of the Year competition to raise money for anti-bullying charity Kidscape – and you could win a huge prize including £10,000 cash!

Specsavers will donate £1 to Kidscape for every entry submitted via their website by Sunday 3 July, with one overall winner receiving the title of Spectacle Wearer of the Year 2016. Their prize includes £10,000, a one-week holiday for two in New York courtesy of www.IceLolly.com, a wardrobe of spectacles to the value of £1000, two-nights in London to attend the star-studded Spectacle Wearer of the Year Awards, a complete style makeover and a fabulous goody bag.

The Aldershot branch of Specsavers are also holding their own local competition, to find the Aldershot Spectacle Wearer of the Year, which The Shots will be attending as part of the judging panel on Thursday 30 June!

As well as submitting your entries via the Specsavers website, please post them to Twitter, tagging @specsavers, @kidscape and @officialshots, or tagging Aldershot Town Football Club on Facebook, so you can really make a spectacle of yourself!
