Story

Chester is where Anya lives so I thought it was a great opportunity to show support for Anya's family by running an event in her honour in her home town.

I first heard about Anya and her story on Facebook and couldn't believe what a brave little girl she is.  It was amazing to see how hard everyone was working to raise money to send her to America for life saving treatment. 

Anya has Neuroblastoma, a frighteningly aggressive childhood cancer. She has already had lots of cancer treatments in the UK and has done really well so far. Now Anya’s best chance of beating the disease lies in America. The treatment Anya will receive in the United States is not available in the same format in the UK, where anti-GD2 and IL2, or just anti-GD2 alone, are given as part of a randomised trial. The proposed treatment and associated costs of £250,000 will not be funded by the NHS which is why Anya needs everybody's help.

Thank you

Tracey
