Now her family are starting to raise the money needed to realise Phoebe's dream.
They are organising a night of entertainment at Brighouse Sports and Social Club on August 5 at 7pm.
A Night For Phoebe will include performances from Jade Craven, Steve Brooks, Lee Lambert and Helen Bailey as well as appearances from Frozen characters Elsa and Anna, a talent show, raffle, tombola, bingo and bake sale.
