In the UK, more than 200 people are diagnosed with macular disease every day, with more people being affected as our population ages.

Julie Swan, Macular Society regional manager, said: “Events like these are a great way to raise awareness of macular disease and highlight the work of the Filey Macular Support Group.

“It’s good to be able to learn from each other’s experiences and tips.”
