I'm raising £50000 to fund AHSCT (stem cell therapy) to halt Multiple Sclerosis

Story

Hi everyone,

In 2021 i was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis and started fundraising to help me raise £60,000 (which we have successfully raised £8,500 of) for AHSCT (Autologous Haematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant) treatment for my Multiple Sclerosis.

For those who don’t know, AHSCT is an intensive stem cell therapy that aims to reset the immune system, with the goal of stopping MS from continuing to attack the body. While it isn’t widely available through the NHS, it has helped many people halt the progression of their disease and regain stability in their lives.

Living with MS brings a lot of uncertainty, and like many others with this condition, I want to do everything I can to give myself the best chance at a healthy future.

This treatment offers real hope — but it comes at a significant cost. The £50,000 will go towards the treatment itself, travel, medical care, and recovery costs.

If you’re able to donate, share, or support in any way at all, it would mean the absolute world to me. Every single contribution, no matter how small, brings me one step closer to this life-changing treatment.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read and for being part of my journey. Your support truly means everything.

Katy 💛
