The 'Musicians Optician', Allegro Optical has been claiming yet more awards for its market leading excellence.

Fresh from being presented with the 'Scale-Up Business of the Year' accolade at the regional finals of the Federation of Small Business awards in March, and then claiming the National 'Best New Arts & Entertainment Business of the Year' honours in London, they have just made it a memorable hat-trick with Managing Director Sheryl Doe becoming the 2019 'Dispensing Optician of the Year'.

National reputation

Allegro Optical is an independent family business that has two outlets in Meltham and Greenfield, and which has gained a national reputation for its professional excellence as well as its inventive approach to meeting customer needs.

It has also become internationally known as the 'Musicians Opticians' for its ground breaking work with performers, players and conductors which has resulted in them being the only opticians registered British Association for Performing Arts Medicine (BAPAM).

Hat-trick

The hat-trick came at the recent annual Optician Awards in Birmingham where the industry rewards the best in the business.

Allegro Optical were finalists in two categories, and there was a huge cheer as Managing Director Sheryl Doe was awarded the prestigious 'National Dispensing Optician of the Year 2019'.

Sheryl later told 4BR: "We were really surprised, but thrilled to have won all these awards. It's very encouraging for all the members of the Allegro Optical team. This award acknowledges the high standard of service we strive to provide every client with."

We take a very special pride in being able to work closely with musicians; understanding their optical needs and requirements and being able to help them enjoy their music makingSheryl Doe, National Dispensing Optician of the Year 2019

Special pride

She added: "We take a very special pride in being able to work closely with musicians; understanding their optical needs and requirements and being able to help them enjoy their music making.

It that specialised help and professional care that has helped win these awards, and we hope we can continue to help musicians and all our customers for many more years to come."
