Story
We are raising money to help Charlotte's family with expensive Dubai medical bills, funeral costs and to help bring her home to the UK.
Our gorgeous friend Charlotte tragically lost her life at the age of 30. She was so excited to go on holiday to Dubai on a girls trip but sadly she fell ill on the flight which resulted in her being taken to intensive care once arriving in Dubai. After being resuscitated multiple times she unfortunately couldn't be saved.
We want to help raise money, as like many young people do, Charlotte didn't take out travel insurance which means the medical bills and repatriation costs will be very high.
Charlotte was the most caring, kind and thoughtful person and she dedicated her life to helping others as a mental health nurse. She was taken from us far too young. Any contributions however big or small will be very much appreciated by her family and friends.
We have changed the target to £30,000. Recently we have found out this is how much it will cost to bring her back- obviously this doesn't include the medical fees etc but its another important target for us to aim for and to help Charlotte's family. If we do end up raising more money than needed, all extra money will be donated to a mental health charity close to Charlotte's heart. Charity TBC.
Thank you x

Sending this with much love to Charlotte's Mum and Dad. Worked alongside her in my Outreach role in Kensington and Chelsea, sadly missed by me and the clients we both supported. God Bless. Fiona xx
