"This January I celebrated 8 years at Orbis. Over the years I've had the privilege of meeting incredibly committed individuals and inspiring teams. Through Qatar Creating Vision I've had the opportunity to work closely with our team in Orbis in Bangladesh and Orbis India and they are consistently the hardest workers in any room. Our achievements to date are remarkable and we are so thankful to Qatar Fund for Development for the platform we've been given."
Emma Bye, Events and Partnerships Manager, Middle East

"I work for Orbis as Events and Relationship Manager for the Middle East. I am so proud of the life changing work that our teams and partners do globally to prevent avoidable blindness. Over the years, I have been so lucky and honoured to view our work first hand and meet so many inspirational people, patients and volunteers, as well as seeing the direct impact on people's lives."

"It’s such a pleasure to work with such inspirational hard working people and see the difference they are making to children’s lives and their futures. It is incredible to see what a difference a simple pair of glasses can make to children’s lives and always heart-warming to see them wearing them with pride."
Natasha Lee, Communications Manager, Middle East

“Seeing someone’s life transformed first-hand is very powerful. Through my job I’m extremely lucky to meet lots of people, hear their stories and understand how their vision loss impacts their lives. To then witness their bandages coming off after surgery and see the excitement and joy on their face, it’s absolutely incredible! To be a part of an organisation that does this day in, day out, makes me very proud."
