A teenage girl suffering from a rare condition is desperately fighting for her life with hopes of raising enough money for life-changing surgery.
Allesha Barnfield, 17, feels like she has a ‘walking death sentence’ and wants to stop the brain condition from internally ‘decapitating’ her.
17-year-old with the Chiari malformation fundraising for brain surgery she can’t get on the NHS…
I worked closely with Allesha and set up both national and regional press interviews. Despite Allesha’s concerns she wouldn’t reach her goal, I reminded her that anything is possible!
Days later the appeal was featured in over 40 media titles including The Mirror and Ladbible and quickly smashed it’s target. Allesha said “Thank you so much for giving me the hopes and dreams to keep going.” ❤️
Feedback
Hi Jane, I wanted to thank you so much for choosing my campaign to spread further awareness. I’m in beyond disbelief after reaching my target. I never knew how powerful gofundme was until I did this, I now have my surgery booked for the 15th of February! I’m so grateful to you for helping, I appreciate it more than you will ever know.
