The treatment Laura requires isn’t available on the NHS and she needs to travel to Cologne in Germany for her treatment, which is very expensive.

Laura’s cause recently received national prominence when comedian Peter Kay performed some fundraising gigs for her. To find out more visit https://www.doingitforlaura.com.
