Scrivens Opticians in Chapel-en-le-Frith named as Branch of the Year
A High Peak optician store has been named as the Scrivens Branch of the Year - for the second year in a row.
The results were announced at the business’ annual conference on Tuesday November 10.
Branch manager Helen Bamforth said: “We are unbelievably proud to share that we have won branch of the year 2026 - some of you will remember we won last year so to win for two consecutive years means so so much to the whole.
“We will certainly be celebrating so please stay tuned for upcoming announcements for more fun with the team.” The business has been on an upward journey recently - in March 2025 the company had seven Google reviews now just over one year later there are more than 500 positive comments.
Jenny Ryan from the store said: “These are genuine feedbacks from our wonderful customers.
“We have also been listening closely to what they wanted, and this year we expanded our whole range of frames based directly on customer suggestions.”
The team say they work hard to create a ‘friendly, warm, and welcoming environment’ and take the time to listen so they can work with customers to ensure they get things right.
Jenny said: “Without you all and the dedication and commitment of our staff, we wouldn’t be where we are today, sitting proudly in the heart of our Chapel community.
“Thank you so much for your continued support. We are so excited, proud and incredibly grateful to have been awarded this for the second year.”
