On Friday 16 September, the OSCAR Campaign will return for the third exciting year of dragon boat racing.
The event will unite companies from across the shipping industry to raise funds for life-saving research into childhood cancers and immune diseases. We are hoping together to rasie £100,000.
Please help us raise funds to support lifesaving research at the Institute of Child Health and Great Ormond Street Hospital so that we can continue our pioneering work to develop a new generation of life-saving immune therapies, to fight cancer and leukaemia.
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.
Today, the campaign supports lifesaving research into childhood cancers and immune diseases, the results of which will improve children’s lives not just at GOSH but worldwide.
The campaign is led by Phil Parry, Chairman of Spinnaker Global, 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.
