The high-vis jackets will mean that the children can be seen by drivers and motorcyclists, and will allow the teachers and assistants to organise their children more easily whenever they are outside of the school. From school trips to journeys home, these high-viz jackets will be a lifesaver.

Anyone unable to visit the Specsavers Serpentine Green store unaccompanied due to disability or illness may be able to receive care at home via a team of mobile opticians.
