We have had another amazing trip last week, supporting Microphthalmia, Anophthalmia & Coloboma Support - MACS to host their annual charity trip at Calvert Trust Keswick Lake District.

The MACs charity is run by, and for, parents of children who were born with Microphthalmia (small eye/s), Anophthalmia (no eye/s) or Coloboma (a cleft in the eye/s) or a combination of these conditions.

MACS helps over 3,000 people from more than 1,000 families across the UK, supporting them at every stage of their journey by providing peer support, practical help and opportunities to take part in life-changing activity trips.

Our brilliant team had the opportunity to support these brave young people to get involved in lots of different activities: rock and rope, ghyll scrambling, tree top adventure, archery and more!

Everyone had a great time away, and we were so happy to be able to support these amazing young people to have the best holiday.
