Colette Nolan was fighting aggressive stage 4 inflammatory breast cancer, which had spread to her liver and bones, and was undergoing self-funded treatment in Istanbul. This enabled her to have more precious time with her family and one-year-old son.

Sadly, Colette lost her brave and courageous battle on February 13, 2018.

Emma-lee said: “Colette was an inspiration to many, including myself.

“Therefore, we are continuing fundraising in her memory to raise funds to go towards a memorial bench for Colette’s family to have in her hometown in Ireland, so that they have somewhere to go and remember her.

“Please donate to our page no matter how big or small, it will all be so appreciated. And many thanks to everyone for the support they showed Colette during her battle and all the generous donations.”
