With a successful application, Louisa Rickatson, from Pavers York, has donated £2,500 to OSCAR’s Paediatric Brain Tumour Charity. Through the Pavers Foundation Louisa wanted to donate to this deserving charity to help those children and their families who are directly impacted by the devastating challenges of paediatric brain tumours.
Based in York and founded in 2014 OSCAR’s, stands of Ongoing Support Care Awareness and Research, works to improve the lives of children with brain tumours and their families while also aiming to bring hope for the next generation through their research projects.
CEO of Oscar’s Sharon Reid said, ‘We are so grateful to Pavers, a great York-based company, for supporting OSCAR's, a York-based charity. The donation will go such a long way to support families, raise awareness and fund research. With this money we have helped a dad be by the bedside of his seriously-ill daughter as well as funding school visits, speech therapy sessions for a 2-year-old brain tumour survivor and occupational therapy to help a 4-year-old to walk again.’
