Lauren Bolton raises £62,000 for rare jaw surgery not offered by the NHS due to long wait times.

Lauren Bolton, a 23-year-old from Helmshore, suffers from a rare jaw condition similar to TV presenter Zoe Ball's, causing severe pain in her jaw, ears, and temple. The condition makes it hard for her to eat, talk, and work. Lauren needs £95,000 for surgery, only performed by a few UK surgeons, which is not available through the NHS due to a three-year wait. She has raised over £62,000 through a GoFundMe campaign to alleviate her pain and improve her future prospects.
