As the situation with COVID-19 continues to progress and in light of the evolving government updates and the easing of certain restrictions, we want to reassure you that the health and well-being of our patients is, as always, our number one priority.

We always seek to provide a safe environment for our patients and our team members and in times such as these, we believe it is our role and responsibility to do our best to ensure we can provide access to eyecare and the products our community need, whilst doing everything we can to keep our customers and our team safe and healthy.

 

 

We have taken some extra special safety measures to ensure that all George & Matilda stores remain hygienic. These measures include:

  • Hand sanitiser available – Hand sanitiser is provided for all patients to use on arrival and during their visit to the practice.

  • Personal Protection Devices – Protective gloves and face masks worn by team members when necessary.
