Role
About Us
Oliver Gill was diagnosed with a very rare and aggressive form of cancer at just a few days old, and despite smiling his way through intensive chemotherapy passed away at 24 weeks old. LoveOliver was started on his parents’ laptop with donations from friends and family.
Today, LoveOliver reaches every family in Scotland with a child diagnosed with cancer, providing practical, financial and emotional support along with the hope of gentler treatments and ultimately a cure, through investment in ground-breaking research. LoveOliver has its own children’s charity shop in Glenrothes and was recently gifted the incredible Hub drop-in centre near Edinburgh’s Royal Hospital for Children & Young People, as well as continuing to provide meals, thermometers and financial grants to every Scottish family impacted by childhood cancer.
As LoveOliver has grown so has our ambition, and we are expanding our small team to help us move forward at this exciting time for the organisation. Help us realise our vision of a country in which every family with a child diagnosed with cancer knows there is hope of a cure and that they will have support on their cancer journey
