Our matchball sponsor for Saturday’s game is something different, it’s the The NHS Diabetic Eye Screening Programme (DESP).
The NHS Diabetic Eye Screening Programme (DESP) screen patients over the age of 12 for diabetic eye disease, which can cause permanent sight loss if not detected and treated. Screening is free of charge and carried out at local clinics and community venues. If you are diabetic and due for screening, call 01422 414700 to arrange an appointment. Visit Overview - West Riding and Craven Diabetic Eye Screening Programme - NHS for more info.
Woodlands is proud to be associated with DESP and would encourage anyone to book a screening
