A WOMAN is in the frame to win a national award.
Judith Lea, 54, from Oswestry, has been chosen from thousands of people to be a regional finalist for Specsavers' Spectacle Wearer of the Year competition.
Judith could follow in the footsteps of last year’s Award winner, Love Island star Alex Miller, by wining £10,000 and the chance to mingle with the stars at the annual Spectacle Wearer of the Year Awards.
The nurse and foot health practitioner was invited to visit Specsavers store in Oswestry to receive a bottle of champagne, a certificate, a £125 glasses voucher and a free eye test.
"I’ve worn glasses since I was 15 years old, so feel pretty comfortable in them," she said.
"It was actually my son who encouraged me to enter the competition and I thought why not - but I couldn’t believe it when I got the call to say I was a regional finalist."
If she triumphs in her age category, Judith will rub shoulders with many other celebs at the glitzy awards ceremony at London’s 8 Northumberland Avenue in October.
