Hannah’s Fund

Hannah, a kind hearted and fun-loving 39-year-old from Stretford, is a loving mum to Lola (14) and Theo (10), a devoted wife to Stuart, treasured daughter and sister to Carole, Mel and Matt and a cherished friend to many.

In January 2024, her world was turned upside down when an eye test revealed a serious health issue. What began as a simple check-up quickly turned into a nightmare when Hannah was diagnosed with ocular melanoma, a rare and aggressive form of cancer.

In February 2024, Hannah underwent surgery to remove the tumour from her eye. Sadly, a biopsy from the tumour revealed the cancer to be a large aggressive tumour, with a high risk of spreading. 

Doctors informed Hannah that there was a 40% chance of the cancer spreading within ten years and a 20% chance within five years. Unfortunately, just ten months after her diagnosis, a routine MRI confirmed that the cancer had already metastasised to her liver.

Due to the rarity of Hannah’s condition, her doctor has recommended chemo saturation as the best available treatment option. This form of chemotherapy, while offering a potentially better outcome for Hannah, is not covered by the NHS. The treatment is available privately at a cost of £46,000 per round, and Hannah may need up to six rounds.

This treatment could be a game changer, offering a potential to extend Hannah’s life and give her more time with her children, her husband, and everyone who loves her.

Hannah’s family and friends have launched this fundraising campaign in the hope of raising the necessary funds to cover the cost of this and any other future vital treatment. The doctors have told Hannah her time may be limited, with a prognosis of less than a year, but with your help, we can give her the chance to fight for more time and more memories with her family.

Should other promising treatments become available for Hannah, this fundraising will also help support those opportunities. However, should Hannah's situation change, these funds will be used to support her and her loved ones during this incredibly challenging time.

Every donation, no matter how small, will make a difference and bring hope to Hannah and her loved ones. Your generosity could help change the course of her fight.

Thank you for your kindness and support during this difficult time.
