PEOPLE in Keighley district who wear glasses have been invited to prove their "specs appeal" to support charity and to have a chance to win £10,000.

Nadine Coyle, of award winning girl group Girls Aloud, is backing the Specsavers' search for the Spectacle Wearer of the Year 2017.

Proud specs wearers from across West Yorkshire can enter the competition, as long as they are aged 16 and over.

Nadine, who was crowned Best Specs Newcomer at the 2016 Spectacle Wearer of the Year Awards, said: "I realised I needed glasses to drive and read last year and I’ve been building up my specs wardrobe ever since.

"I was thrilled to win the newcomer award last year, so it’s a real honour to help with the search for 2017."

Glen Sedman, store director at Specsavers in Keighley, said: "We’re asking all glasses wearers in the area to pucker up and share their best selfie.

"Not only is it a perfect opportunity to showcase their personal specs style to the country, each entry helps raise funds for anti-bullying charity Kidscape."

The contest has five age categories – 16-24, 25-34, 35-44, 45-59 and over 60s – plus a Facebook favourite voted for by the public.

A winner from each category will win a VIP makeover and the opportunity to mingle with celebrities at the awards in London in October.

One pound will be donated to Kidscape for each entry made.
