“I want to see somewhere human beings haven’t touched. An unpolluted place that I’ll remember when I’m old.”

A Mancunian woman revives her dream to visit the North Pole after receiving new NHS treatment for Sickle Cell.

In May 2022, Gloria started a new treatment at the Manchester Royal Infirmary that has significantly improved her quality of life and allowed her to revive her long-cherished dream. She said: “I’m one of those people who’s always open to trying new things to help myself and others it may benefit, like my brother, so I was excited to get started. I was just like – let’s do it! I didn’t even think twice.”
