Tracy Foster BEM founder of the Family Burns Club talks to Yorkshire Business Woman
In this heartfelt episode Freda Shafi talks to Tracy Foster founder of the Family Burns Club
Tracy has worked as a Play Specialist and Burns Specialist for over 20 years at both Pinderfields Hospital and independently at the Family Burns Club receiving many accolades including a BEM British Empire Medal for her services. She works tirelessly to raise over £30,000 a year to support children who have been victims of burns.
Tracy found that the impact of burns and the repercussions of the trauma were even bigger once the child and family went home and left the full time care of the hospital. The charity was established to help children, their families and young adults face the challenges of suffering a burn injury, in an atmosphere of fun, support and rehabilitation resulting in an improvement in care and experience. As Tracy explains "If I could bottle the screams of a burn victim I wouldn't need to explain how traumatic it is for the child and their family".
