Speaking at the event, Marissa Carter said: “It was an honour to host the LauraLynn Oscars on behalf of these incredible children and their families.

“They’ve all worked so hard over the past few weeks screenwriting, producing and acting, of course, and have created some brilliant short films. It’s fantastic that we can give them a true red carpet experience.”
