​
Ollie was our best friend, and was always the best of company to be around.
Ollie was a keen angler and loved to spend his time at the lakes. Sadly he passed in August 2020 from an on-going battle with brain cancer, so every year we come together to celebrate him and the things he loved, all in support of the Brain Tumour Charity.
​
The Ollie Scott Fund has been set up in Ollie’s memory and to raise funds for The Brain Tumour Charity and to support their work.
