Our beloved friend Tanith has recently received the devastating news that she has a terminal cancer diagnosis. She is facing the unimaginable — but she’s doing so with the strength, honesty, and unique spirit we all know and love.

Tanith is a devoted mum to her 11-year-old daughter, Arya, a sensitive, artistic soul who adores her mum deeply. Together, they share a rare and beautiful bond. We want to help give them the time, space, and freedom to focus on what truly matters right now: making memories together.

Whether it’s trips to the forest, days filled with laughter and art, music festivals, or holidays somewhere magical — your donation will help Tanith and Arya create joyful, lasting moments in this precious time.

One of Tanith’s biggest worries is the thought of losing her dreadlocks during chemo — a powerful symbol of her identity and the life she’s lived. She’s saving to buy a special wig, which a generous person has kindly offered to transform into dreadlocks for her, helping her feel like herself through the toughest days. This process is quite expensive, and any funds raised will help ease the financial burden of this deeply meaningful goal.

Tanith has been a nurse her entire career, caring for others with warmth and dedication. Now, as she is unable to work, your support means even more.

We are hoping to raise funds to support:

• Special holidays and day trips for Tanith and Arya

• Practical support to ease financial stress

• Memory-making experiences

• The special wig and its transformation into dreadlocks

• Comfort items to make treatment and everyday life a little easier

Tanith has given so much to those around her with her warmth, creativity, and authenticity. Now it’s our turn to give something back. Every donation, no matter how small, helps Tanith and Arya embrace the time they have left together with love, dignity, and joy.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

With love,

Laura and Tanith’s community
