Well done Hannah. Hannah is the daughter of Formby CC legend Ducan Fraser and a keen watcher of cricket. Brilliant news!
Hannah Fraser found out she had cancer just before she was due to sit her GCSE PE exam.
Despite what she was going through, Hannah carried on taking her exams and achieved seven GCSEs.
She is now in remission
An inspiration to us all ❤️💪
