Hide AdSarah (32) has known Laura and her family since she was a teenager when she worked for their business Giddy Kippers in Nelson.
She said: “Laura was amazing, so intelligent and bubbly, and I want to help celebrate her and everything she’s achieved.”
Laura was diagnosed with a glioblastoma (GBM) tumour - the most aggressive form of brain cancer - following a routine eye test when she was just 18, and given one year to live.
But she defied the odds and embarked on an epic bucket list, from piloting a Royal Navy ship to reading the weather on TV and meeting Michelle Obama.
