Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

We (My students, friends and I) have been following a lovely young lady called Alice Pyne (read her story on her blog,)who has terminal cancer. Last year we sent her a parcel of wonderful things brought in by students at our school. Well now Alice has asked for our help for a friend of hers. Unlike Alice herself, Vanessa has a chance of treatment in America and we would love to help her get there, take this chance and get better. We hope you all feel the same way.

You can see a video telling Vanessa's story in the gallery
