Combat medic's £90,000 appeal for lifesaving treatment goes up in lights
AN APPEAL to raise £90,000 so former combat medic Katrina Brown can undergo lifesaving treatment is to be projected onto the side of the Eagle Tower in Cheltenham on Friday evening.
Almost £30,000 has been raised in a race against time for the 31-year-old military wife from South Cerney, who urgently needs the procedure in America for systemic sclerosis because it is not available in the UK on the NHS.
Katrina’s Stem Cell Fund appeal, which is being backed by the Standard, will appear between 5pm and 11pm. For more information and to make donations visit gofundme.com/2jbkd0
