Our Kids raises money to purchase paediatric equipment for the local Children’s Wards and Special Care Nursery for kids living in the Northern Rivers who require medical care locally.

This year, Our Kids has again invited the local emergency services along, so expect to see trucks, cars and boats located on a designated area at the park. Children will have the opportunity to see and learn about the vital services that help keep the community safe and rescue people in trouble.

They will also meet some of the staff who work in the Lismore Base Hospital Children’s Ward.

“Bring the family, a picnic blanket and enjoy the day of free entertainment,” Our Kids Fundraising Coordinator, Rebekka Battista, said.

Our Kids will be presenting the Suzie Levot Memorial Our Kids Bravery Award to recognise the courage of Isaiah Bell, a young patient who has spent time in the Lismore Base Hospital Children's Ward as well as a significant amount of time at Queensland Children’s Hospital.

16-month-old Isaiah was born with Tetralogy of Fallot (a heart malformation), for which he underwent surgery, and has other medical conditions that have also required multiple surgeries, medical interventions, admissions, blood tests and appointments.

The staff at Lismore Base Hospital Children’s Ward unanimously agreed Isaiah should be the recipient of the Bravery Award this year.

“Isaiah truly deserves to be centre stage at the Our Kids Day Out celebration,” Rebekka said.
