50th anniversary of Tuite Opticians

That this House congratulates Tuite Opticians as they mark their 50th anniversary; notes their first opening in March 1973 in Coatbridge as an independent family-run business; notes the high-quality practice and home eyecare services they provide to residents across Lanarkshire; applauds their Right to Sight mantra, ensuring that everyone has access to basic healthcare; supports their ethos of patient-centred care, particularly to those suffering from dementia and other debilitating conditions; further notes the work they have done in giving back to the community by supporting local foodbanks through monthly donations, collecting money for local charities from spectacle repairs and offering patients the chance to enter into a monthly prize draw to win prescription sunglasses; thanks the practice owner, Eamonn Tuite, optometrist Stephen Kirley and practice manager Michelle Campbell for their unwavering commitment to the community; and wishes the practice all the very best for another 50 years.
