Hi all,
Joining Trinity, I was delighted to find this amazing challenge raising money for such a wonderful cause. In August 2022 I will be climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, the worlds tallest freestanding mountain, its peak sitting at 5895m above sea level. My climb is in aid of the Meningitis Research Foundation; a charity which aims to research and raise awareness of two serious diseases, Meningitis and Septicaemia. Shockingly, meningitis and neonatal sepsis are the second biggest infectious killers of children under the age of five on the planet, affecting more than 2.8 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 Foundation's work is providing better access to vaccines, health systems that can diagnose and treat children, and support to survivors of meningitis. It would mean a lot if you could make a donation small or large and thank you so much to those of you that have!
