The 2025 SightCare Independent Optician Awards celebrating the independent spirit has opened for applications. The SightCare Awards recognize the best independent opticians from the length and breadth of the UK. Independent practitioners and their staff enter learning initiatives and independent business content in various categories for recognition of excellence.
The 2025 Awards categories included: Independent Practice of the Year, Customer Service Excellence, Practice Team, Community Practice, Frame Styling Practice, Environmental Practice, and 2 new categories for 2025, Clinical Excellence and Members’ Choice Special Award. 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 26th & 27th January 2025.
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.”
