In Memory of Rachel - Supporting Her Children

Donation protected

It is with the heaviest of hearts that we share an update about our beloved Rachel.

On Sunday 22nd March 2026, at 23:06 local time, Rachel passed away peacefully at CK Birla Hospital in Delhi, India, with her parents by her side.

Rachel fought an incredibly brave and relentless 4½ year battle with Triple Negative Breast Cancer. She faced every challenge with strength, courage, and without complaint, giving everything she had for as long as she could. Sadly, the cancer was very aggressive and had progressed significantly, and in the end it became too much for her body to endure.

Rachel made the decision to travel to India for treatment because she believed there were no further options available to her in the UK. She was determined to keep fighting for as long as possible—for herself, and most importantly, for her children. That determination, hope, and love defined her until the very end.

We are heartbroken beyond words. Rachel was a deeply loved daughter, granddaughter, sister, mother, auntie, niece, cousin and friend, and the space she leaves behind can never be filled.

We want to thank everyone who has supported Rachel throughout her journey—through donations, messages, prayers, and kindness. It meant more to her, and to all of us, than we can ever truly express.

Please continue to keep Rachel and her loved ones in your thoughts and prayers and respect their privacy at this incredibly difficult time.

Any additional funds raised from the GoFundMe will go to Rachel's children, Jaxon and Marlowe.
