Big thanks from Campbell & Jules to Conor, Lacey, Rory and Jess from the Optical Success Academy Manchester 🙌
A proper informative day of training with a brilliant bunch of positive, like-minded independent optometrists.
And of course... couldn't miss the chance to soak up the Manchester vibes - from the buzzing streets to that unmistakable Manc spirit🐝💛

10 Big Birthdays-One Big Night Out!
2025 is a big year for us with 10 of our amazing team celebrating milestone birthdays! 🥳✨

To mark the occasion, the girls swapped eye charts for bingo cards and headed to Bongo’s Bingo 🎱 for a night full of laughs, dancing, and maybe just a little chaos (no dancing on the tables though… promise! 😉).

Here’s to bingo babes, BIG birthdays & brilliant memories — and seeing the year ahead in perfect focus! 🤩

💛It’s Big Birthday Treat Time!💛

Remember how we said 2025 is a huge year for us, packed with 10 BIG birthdays?!

👯👯👯👯👯

Ann, Sharon, Clare, Janice, Caroline, and Annmarie smashed the big 60! Campbell-almost the big 50! Nicola, fabulous at 40! Last but certainly not least, Anna and Kirsty, our dynamic duo turning 30!

Well… the party’s finally happening! 🥂🍾

This Saturday, 25th October, we’ll be closed while our amazing team deservedly celebrates all those milestone moments — from the fab 30s to the super 60s!

Apologies in advance — we hope this doesn’t cause any inconvenience.

We’ll be back refreshed, recharged, and ready to see you on Monday morning. 👩🏼‍🏫😁

We are delighted to celebrate Elizabeth, who has reached another wonderful milestone with us – 25 years since coming back to Reid Mackellar!

Elizabeth first joined the practice at just 16, straight out of school, when she was taken on by our founder, Mr Mac – Campbell and Mhairi’s grandpa. After a short break away in the late 1990s, she returned, and we couldn’t be more thankful that she did. For the past 25 years Elizabeth has been such a dedicated, loyal, and much-loved part of our team and family business. From all of us at Reid Mackellar – thank you Elizabeth, for everything you’ve given to our patients and our practice over the years. Here’s to many more happy years ahead together! 🥂💐
