Sutton Coldfield Gran crowd funds cancer treatment

A grandmother has turned to the public to try to help her raise tens of thousands of pounds to fund her cancer treatment after the NHS told her they would not.

Carol Player, 60, from Streetly, Sutton Coldfield in the West Midlands, has a rare form of cancer but was told the health service cannot provide chemosaturation.

She has already raised more than 拢65,000 since August but said "I never envisaged having to do anything like this but I have no choice".

NHS England said the treatment could have serious complications and they were not required to make it routinely available.
