Employee honoured for 25 years of service at Sutton based opticians

Dianne Kerrison was congratulated by colleagues at its Alfreton branch and presented with a garden centre voucher and flowers in recognition of her long service.

Dianne has built up a loyal customer following and splits her time between the Alfreton, Heanor, Sutton and Ripley branches.

She said: “It is a rewarding job and I love seeing the difference contact lenses make to people who want an alternative to glasses. The ‘wow’ reaction you get from children and their delight is a particular highlight.

“I enjoy going to the different branches and working with and meeting different people.”

Helen Bamforth, area manager, said: “Dianne is a loyal and hardworking professional who is popular with our customers and a great member of staff.

"We’re delighted to recognise her achievement and congratulate her on 25 years service.”
