In Loving Memory of Oscar

Former Head of Security

Sadly we lost Oscar, our previous ‘Head of Security’, in August 2023 to stomach cancer.  He reached the grand old age of 13 and was lucky enough to have lived a wonderful life where he was loved unconditionally for it’s entirety- and then some!  Oscar was Jason’s very best friend and spent most of his life on site- so he was a huge part of our team.  Sadly Oscar lost his sight in the last few years of his life- but whilst that meant he couldn’t come to site any longer- he became Deb’s office buddy instead, which they both loved! 

Oscar was a real foodie (like most labs!) and loved nothing more than a biscuit- or any food actually!  Whilst Oscar couldn’t see- this only heightened his other senses so there was no scrap of food that he couldn’t snuffle out!  He adjusted very well to losing his sight and soon found his way around new places- it was really quite fascinating!

In September 2024 Jason cycled a gruelling 55 miles from London to Brighton in Oscar’s memory, raising money for Macmillan.  Oscar still lives on in our hearts- and on our vans where he is pictured!  He will forever be our team mascot, and the best Head of Security we could have ever asked for.
