Specsavers - Southgate Centre

About Us

Who we are
We’ve been a family-run business for over 30 years, working together with our store partners to provide the best value optometry, audiology and other healthcare service for our customers.

You’ll find us in the UK, Ireland, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Spain, Australia, New Zealand and most recently Canada, employing over 32,500 people who work across our 1,978 stores, as well as in our support offices and throughout the supply chain.

Why we do it
When Doug and Mary Perkins started Specsavers back in 1984, they wanted to challenge the industry towards irreversible change for the good of everyone, so that access to quality and affordable eyecare was available to whoever needed it, whenever they needed it. Since then, everything we’ve done is driven with that same purpose.

So whenever you come across one of our stores, you’ll find experts in eye health and frame style, as well as great value with our glasses, sunglasses, contact lenses and eye-catching offers.
