Essex Scooterists rideout 2024 – Charity

Essex Scooterists

The Essex Scooterists organize a charity ride every year in aid of the Lennox Children's Cancer Fund. This was the third year in a row.

With over 150 scooters, the rideouts have always been well attended. Each year around £2.000 is raised for the Essex-based children's cancer charity And this year, on Sunday 29 September 2024, an incredible £2200 together, and 256 Scooters were there. 

We congratulate the Essex Scooterists and Ben Tushaw  for their efforts. Thank you for including us in this great campaign!

and in addition to the photos, we also received an email directly from the foundation. This touches us particularly, because it gives the small contributions that the Scooter Center through sponsoring such events makes sense. The applause always goes to the clubs that make this possible.

If you would like to learn more about the foundation, you can find the link and a summary of its activities here.

Care Grants are awarded to families struggling with the financial consequences of a child's cancer. These grants can be used for a variety of expenses, such as travel to and from the numerous hospital visits, household bills, or special equipment the child needs.

Emotional support Our families receive support through our personal 24-hour contact as well as through the provision of professional therapy and counseling.

Practical support receive support from our families through assistance in completing hospital forms, assistance with financial claims, and information about treatment procedures.

recreational stays in our holiday home in Norfolk or at New Forest Lodge, provide the families we support with a much-needed break from hospitals, doctors and treatments, where everyone can recover, relax and spend time as a 'normal' family. These stays are completely free of charge and are supported with an allowance.
