SightCare unveils awards shortlist

A total of 28 independent optical practices have been shortlisted in their chosen categories for the 2024 SightCare Independent Optician Awards celebrating the independent spirit.

Through the SightCare competition, independent practitioners and their staff enter learning initiatives and independent business content in various categories for recognition of excellence.

Awards categories include: Independent Practice of the Year, Customer Service Excellence, Practice Team, Sustainable Practice, Marketing Excellence, Community Practice and Frame Styling Practice.

Finalists are selected by a group of experienced judges and, from that group of finalists, one winner from each category will be awarded at the SightCare Conference on 28 January 2024.

SightCare chief executive, John French, said: “Entering awards is always good for business. It is an opportunity to inspect, dissect and correct your business from the inside out. The SightCare Awards enable its member practices to look retrospectively, currently, and in the future at all aspects of their business, and to highlight areas in which they want to improve, grow and develop.”
