York: OSCAR’s in memory of Oscar Hughes looks to turn 10

A charity working to help others in memory of a York schoolboy who died from a brain tumour is to celebrate its 10th year.

OSCAR’s Paediatric Brain Tumour Charity was launched in memory of Oscar Hughes from Dunnington who died aged nine in 2014.

Oscar’s parents Marie and Ian Hughes set up the charity later that year.

In 2020, Ian also died of a brain tumour and a few days after Ian’s funeral his son, four-year-old Milo, was diagnosed with the same disease and died a year later.
