News & Events

Shipping News:    Due to the complications arising out of our exit from the EU and general tarif chaos, we are suspending overseas shipments for everything until the situation clarifies. Our apologies.  Please do not hesitate to telephone Sue on 0345 873 4700 for further information.

To receive up to date information about what is going on at The Finishing Touch,  please sign up to our newsletter (at the foot of the home page) for advance notice of new collections, sales and special offers.   We create a new printed catalogue twice yearly, crammed with specs and fashion accessories, so make sure we have your name and address to receive it.  You can do this by emailing  sue@thefinishingtouchlimited.co.uk 

  • STOP PRESS
  • We are delighted that, at last, events are once more popping up everywhere.    
  • In this digital age, our focus is changing and although the website and our printed mail order catalogue are pivoting to the front of our activities, we have not forgotten the many charities we support and we will continue to attend fundraising events, when we are able to donate a percentage of our turnover and table fees.  Come and say hello and enjoy trying on our Spectacular Spectacles reading glasses.
