Oscar Knox is a 3 year old child suffering from a rare childhood cancer called Neuroblastoma.  Oscar’s Grandfather, Brian Knox, has been a dedicated Dennison Commercials employee in our Ballyclare Service Department for almost 40 years.

Oscar's family and friends are currently trying to raise £250,000 so that he can receive immunotherapy treatment.  This would help stimulate Oscar's immune system, so that his own body can recognise and attack the neuroblastoma if it was to return in future.

Staff of Dennisons are taking part in a truck pull to raise funds for Oscar.  We will be pulling a truck and trailer combination, including a brand new Volvo FH - one of the very first of the new truck model off production - weighing in at over 15 tonnes!

The pull will take place along Royal Avenue /  Donegall Place, starting at 2pm on Sat 10th Nov and ending at the City Hall.

Please come along to show your support!
