Lomar Shipping will again be supporting the OSCAR campaign for Great Ormond Street Hospital in London. We will be taking part in the OSCAR Dragon Boat Race, a shipping industry initiative to raise money for lifesaving research into childhood cancers and immune diseases
About the OSCAR Campaign
The OSCAR Campaign raises funds towards areas of urgent need at Great Ormond Street Hospital and its research partner, the UCL Institute of Child Health. It has raised over £2 million – more than a third of it from the Dragon Boat race - to support priority areas of research which will improve children’s lives worldwide.
The campaign is led by Phil Parry, Chairman of Spinnaker, whose son Oscar was diagnosed with leukaemia at just three years old. Oscar received three life-saving transplants at GOSH, one of which was a ground-breaking stem cell transplant.
He is living proof of the importance of pioneering research. Had he been in the same situation a year earlier, it is unlikely he would have survived.
