On the 29th of August 2022 I will be tackling another mountain, in aid of a very worthy cause. This time I will be trekking for 14 days to 5,374 metres above sea level all the way to Everest Base Camp.

In these uncertain times, charities need our help more than ever. 

Therefore, my EBC climb will be in aid of the Meningitis Research Foundation; a charity which aims to research and raise awareness of two serious diseases, Meningitis and Septicaemia. 

MRF are on the Global Roadmap, alongside the World Health Organisation to defeat Meningitis  by 2030. 

Shockingly, meningitis and neonatal sepsis are the second biggest infectious killer of children under the age of five on the planet, affecting more than 5 million people every year! They can kill you within 12 hours and are responsible for more deaths of children under 5 than malaria, measles, tetanus and AIDS combined. 

Meningitis Research Foundations work is providing better access to vaccines, health systems that can diagnose and treat, and support to survivors of meningitis. 

Its time to make meningitis a global health priority. I would be extremely grateful if you could help me reach my fundraising goal, by donating to such a worthwhile cause. 

Thank you.
