A couple of weeks ago David Cole, MBA joined Leicester Hospitals Charity and one of our clincal advisors Dr Damian Roland at their #BossBreakOut charity fundraising event. A team of business leaders from across the East Midlands were 🔐 locked-in 🔐 to a Pop-Up Shop at the Leicester Haymarket Shopping Centre with a goal of raising £1,000 each to 'break-out' of the unit. They were raising money to support the purchase of Smileyscope VR Headsets for the Leicester Children's Hospital. They absolutely smashed their target of £11,000 by raising just shy of £24,000 🥰 🤩 . The VR headsets will help children coming into the emergency department and support them during difficult procedures like MRI/CT scans and blood tests, making their hospital visits less daunting and stressful. Thinking of Oscar was deligted to be able to donate the first Smileyscope headset once the first £2,000 was raised and help demonstate how they worked on the day. Well done and thank you to everyone involved!
