Cilla Glasson is a one-woman fund raising dynamo from Christchurch, having raised nearly ten million dollars for Christchurch's St George's hospital over the past 25 years.
This includes a brand new MR linear accelerator used in the treatment of soft tissue cancers - the only one of its kind in New Zealand, and just the 100th in the world to be sold.
It began treating patients last month. Cilla Glasson is a director on the board of St George's, and trustee on a number of charities including the Bone Marrow Cancer Trust, the youth development charity 180 Degrees and a director of the Salvation Army.
She was made a member of the NZ Order of Merit in 2014.
