As National Apprenticeship Week wraps up, we’re celebrating the amazing journeys of apprentices like Ella! 👓✨ Ella’s time at Davis Optometrists, a group of Hakim Group independent practices, has helped her grow, build confidence, and form meaningful connections with patients. This is what helps to make independent opticians so special! 👏. Amit Sharma #HakimGroup #NationalApprenticeshipWeek #OpticalCareers #Apprenticeships #IndependentOpticians

The BBC spoke to Scottish researchers developing an AI tool that could help high-street opticians identify early signs of dementia. Ian Cameron, Senior IP optometrist and Hakim Group independent practice owner, shared his insights: "The eye is unique in that it is a window to the whole body. All the systems of the body are represented, so as well as all the eye diseases that we look for – cataracts, glaucoma, macular degeneration, problems with vision – we can also detect things to do with your vascular system, your heart, high blood pressure, diabetes, and there's even some links to neurological conditions that you can pick up in the eye."

Suzanne Dennis Optometrist, with three Hakim Group independent practices across Lancashire, hosted workshops raising awareness about brain haemorrhages and the importance of monitoring blood pressure. 🩺✨ The initiative raised an amazing £1,300 for the Natalie Kate Moss Trust (NKMT), with £50 donated for every pair of spectacles sold over £399. A raffle with prizes such as Tom Ford sunglasses and perfume added to the excitement, thanks to the luxury brand's generosity.
