Specsavers Home Visits in Sunderland answers cubs Halloween call as they donate pumpkins

The Newcastle domiciliary business, which is based in Sunderland but covers every corner of the North East and Cumbria for home visit optical and audiology treatments, has come to the rescue and provided 1st Wylam Cubs with pumpkins for its Halloween spooktacular.

The Specsavers staff loaded up their cars to the brim with the seasonal favourite before dropping them off in the Northumberland village of Wylam.

The kids were over the moon with the spooky treat as they carved their best scary faces and also roasted the pumpkin seeds to make a healthy snack.

Specsavers Newcastle Home Visits customer services director Kelly Rowe says: ‘When we saw the call from the cubs on Facebook, we were more than happy to help.

‘Coming together as a community is what times like this are all about and we can see from the photos that the kids had a blast carving their pumpkins.’
