Dis-Chem Ride for Sight is Back
The annual Dis-Chem Ride for Sight 2021 was cancelled due to the Covid – 19 restrictions. We are happy to announce that a new date has been set for 20 February 2022.
Our loyal headline partner Dis- Chem Pharmacies will be the naming sponsor once again and we thank them for their phenomenal support over the last 20 years.
The Dis-Chem Ride for Sight has been the major contributor to the Retinal Research Project at the University of Cape Town for many years. Sadly, due to the cancellation of the 2021 event our contribution to UCT was severely affected.

We sincerely hope that the present restrictions remain in place, or improve for 2022 for this will allow the event to be staged.
We are indebted to our volunteer organising committee for their expertise and time that results in an exceptionally well organised and ever popular event. THANK YOU
