Passionate

The Graham Layton Trust (GLT) is passionate about restoring sight and transforming lives. Every member of GLT together with its sister charity in Pakistan, Layton Rahmatulla Benevolent Trust (LRBT), is dedicated to this purpose.

Exceptional

LRBT was founded by Graham Layton and Zaka Rahmatulla in 1984, two exceptional individuals who envisioned that, within Pakistan, everyone would one day be able to access an LRBT facility within 200 kilometres (125 miles) to be treated absolutely free of any charge.

That dream is close to being achieved: having started with one mobile hospital in the remote village of Tando Bago in Sindh province, LRBT today operates 16 eye care hospitals and 40 primary eye care clinics within all four provinces of Pakistan.

All provide care free of charge.

Cost Effective

GLT is a UK registered charity, formed for the relief of poverty and the relief of the sick in any part of the world.  

We support the activities of our sister charity LRBT in Pakistan: approximately 90p of every £1 donated to GLT is sent directly to LRBT.

Acknowledged as a leader in the field of preventing blindness and treating eye disease, LRBT is supported by the Graham Layton Trust, Sight Savers International (UK), Pakistan Baitul, Pakistan Central Zakat Administration, Infaq Foundation (Pakistan), Friends of LRBT (worldwide), and many generous individuals.
