When I finally came through the other side of my journey BH, I realised how many lives we could help & save by getting people diagnosed faster & treated earlier creating better outcomes. This was how lechaim began. BH we have so far put over 60 people out of their worries sooner with good test results and unfortunately have helped 18 people be diagnosed quicker and start treatment earlier giving them a better prognosis. Please help me to continue to help people, in the zechus of your donation may you & your family always be healthy and well. Pls click on the link below or call 0161 820 7940 to collect vouchers or cash! We have just 2 days to raise at least £100,000. Together we can make a difference https://www.charityextra.com/giveuslife/7763

Hi I know recently you have been inundated with begging texts but please give me a minute just to read the following . LECHAIM pays for tests and scans through private care so one can receive a cancer diagnosis within days rather than waiting weeks or months on the NHS. This enables vital treatment to begin sooner thus giving a better outcome and avoids endless weeks of worry. Lechaim also works with The Christie to make sure everyone gets the best care possible. I can vouch for the importance of this on a personal basis ie an immediate diagnosis and treatment plan . In this Covid climate the latter has become even more of a challenge. Help us create a positive future for Jewish patients by contributing at the link below or calling 0161 820 7940 We have just 2 days to raise at least £100,000. Together we can make a difference Many thanks Jane https://www.charityextra.com/giveuslife/7761

We have unfortunately been touched by cancer and threatening disease several times and indeed since my daughter's long but bh successful treatment at Christies, we have used the services of L'chaim twice, and both times they held our hand throughout, experienced their efficiency, kindness, and speed!! These are both wonderful organisations and sad to say, the kehilla need them - Sheva, Daddy and Zeida would be SO proud of you, and so are all of us!

Hi everyone I just want to tell you all what an amazing organisation L’Chaim is. They help people who don’t have medical insurance to get a quicker diagnosis and to start treatments much sooner than they would have if the have to wait for the NHS. It could take around 6 weeks to get a first appointment on the NHS followed by weeks waiting for scan appointments and results, with L’Chaim it could take a few days to figure out what’s wrong and begin a treatment plan saving the patient and families the worry of the unknown and also much better outcomes with earlier diagnosis. I have also had personal experience with the Cristie hospital when my husband was undergoing treatment for a brain tumour 5 years ago. The staff are so warm and caring and will always do everything possible to make things easier. If we can all do our part by giving a donation and forwarding to friends and family it doesn’t take too long to help save a few more lives. Thanks so much!-- In the Zechus of your generosity you should never need any of these services. Thanks so much!--

GIVE US LIFE

The opportunity to save a life doesn’t come to everyone, but for Lechaim it’s routine.

Nobody wants to go on an oncology journey but, if they need it, the sooner they start, the better. Early diagnosis drastically improves outcomes. Unfortunately, under the UK’s National Health Service, rapid access to testing isn’t always possible and it can take weeks or even months to get a diagnosis and begin treatment.

Fortunately for the Jewish community in Manchester, since Lechaim’s inception in 2018, there’s no need to wait. Lechaim facilitates early access to tests and investigations by funding them privately. In a situation where every day makes a difference, this undoubtedly saves lives, not to mention saving people the agonies of waiting and worrying.

Rabbi X phoned Lechaim at 10:00 am to say his daughter of 8 had been having headaches and showing signs of confusion and the doctor wanted a brain MRI scan. The waiting time on the NHS was several weeks but, thanks to Lechaim, Little Miss X had a private appointment at 1:30 pm, was in the scanner at 2:00pm and had her diagnosis by 5:00pm, ready to move onto treatment.

Mr Y found a lump which needed investigating. Someone close to him had been through this and Mr Y knew how serious it could be. Every hour that he waited for tests he was ‘a nervous wreck’, as he imagined all kinds of scenarios. On the NHS, he would have been in that state for weeks. With Lechaim’s help, he only had to wait a few days for all the necessary tests and investigations, before, B’H, receiving the good news that it was not malignant.

Building on their success, Lechaim is now looking at ways to improve patients’ experience during treatment and follow-up.

Over the years, many Jewish patients have accessed care at The Christie in Manchester - leading experts in cancer care, research and education and one of the largest centres of its type in Europe. Lechaim has developed a relationship with The Christie and to show appreciation, raise the profile of our community and build a more positive connection we would like to show that we value and appreciate all they do for us by helping them raise money for their amazing charity.

Lechaim hopes that this fundraiser on the will be very successful. The monies raised will go to Lechaim and The Christie.

To date Lechaim have assisted in over 80 cases since the inception and 17 diagnoses r'l. of cancer.
