We are SUPER excited to finally announce 
HURT, Have Your Tomorrows new Partnership with Specsavers on the Foyle 
To kick off the partnership, teams from both Specsavers Derry-Londonderry stores dedicated a morning in December to engaging workshops with HURT. These workshops included “Less Stress, More Success,” focusing on well-being, stress management, and supporting colleagues. Additionally, the teams participated in “Looking Through the Hurt Lens,” which covered resilience therapy, empathy, compassion, communication, and team building. The day was rounded off with “The Zen Room,” offering complimentary acupuncture, reflexology, and massage to promote holistic well-being.
Store Director Maeve Walsh expressed her enthusiasm for the collaboration, stating, “We are thrilled to embark on this journey with HURT as our charity partner. Their unique and compassionate approach to addiction recovery and family support aligns perfectly with our values at Specsavers Ferryquay Street and Crescent Link. The workshops were not only educational but also a wonderful opportunity for our teams to connect with the community and understand the challenges faced by those in recovery.”
Director Seán McAuley added, “We know the value and importance of services like HURT and, as a locally owned and run store, we can see the real impact they make to people in the city. At Specsavers, one of our values is to make expert care accessible to all, and we see the care and service that HURT provide as essential in our community.”
Business Development and Social Enterprise Manager Leanne Doherty summarised the partnership by saying ‘ We are delighted to have Specsavers Ferryquay Street and Crescent Link on board as a charity partner. Their commitment to supporting the community and engaging in meaningful activities aligns perfectly with HURT’s mission. Together, we can make a positive impact on the lives of individuals and families affected by addiction.”
We have an exciting campaign that we will be announcing in the coming weeks.
Thank you to all the team 
Exciting times ahead
