Help Rachel Make Precious Memories With Her Family and raise funds for a campervan.
Rachel is our wonderful friend and colleague, a loving mum to her 5-year-old daughter, and a much-loved midwife at Scarborough Hospital, where she’s helped bring hundreds of new lives into the world.
In her twenties, Rachel bravely faced and beat breast cancer. She endured months of gruelling chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgery, and she did it all with the same dry and dark sense of humour we know her for.
Tragically, ten years later, in July this year Rachel has been diagnosed with secondary breast cancer in her spine.
This time, although treatable, it is currently incurable.
Despite the devastating news, Rachel continues to show the same incredible strength and selflessness she always has. Just a few months ago, without knowing her cancer had returned, she completed the Giants causeway mighty marathon hike to raise money for Macmillan cancer support. She also recently cut off her hair to donate to the Little Princess Trust, helping children facing their own cancer battles. These are just two of the many many fundraisers Rachel has done over the years. That’s just who she is, always thinking of others.
Now it’s our turn to give back.
Our greatest wish for Rachel is for her to make as many beautiful memories as possible with her husband and little girl. Between treatments, they dream of travelling the UK in a campervan, cherishing every moment together as a family.
With your help, we want to make that dream come true.
Any donations you can make really will be so appreciated and mean the chance for Rachel to create unforgettable moments with the people she loves most.
Please share this far and wide. Let’s show Rachel just how loved and supported she is.
From the bottom of our hearts — thank you. 💗
