Una Ridley addresses member of the Business Club
Towcester Business Club meets every month on the last Wednesday for lunch. The May meeting heard Una Ridley a Towcester resident gave a very good talk on Macular degeneration, a disease from which she suffered.
Macular degeneration is a collective term for over 1500 conditions which affect vision by damage to a small area of the retina at the back of the eye.
Una related how she had to fight to get the right drugs to combat the disease.
