Family raise money for 34-year-old’s brain cancer treatment with Tesla Model 3 raffle

By / 11 months ago / UK News / No Comments

The family of a 34-year-old father diagnosed with brain cancer are raffling off their Tesla Model 3 to raise money for treatment.

The raffle will raise money for treatment that will enable Sam to spend more time with his wife and children

Sam Bravo-Hibberd was diagnosed with brain cancer in September 2023 just eight weeks after he and his wife welcomed a daughter to their family.

Sam has one of the deadliest forms of brain cancer which has no cure.

The raffle will raise money for treatment that will enable Sam to spend more time with his wife and children after completion of his current radiotherapy course.

While NHS treatment options for Sam are limited, UK private hospitals, and hospitals in other countries, are now offering more advanced treatments, such as immunotherapy and Tumour Treating Fields (TTF) or Optune.

Such treatments buy people such as Sam more time to spend with their family – especially young children.

The raffle is open until 16 February 2024 at 11.59pm and needs at least £100,000 to be pledged.

Details of the Crowdfunder campaign and how to donate are here.
