Story

Last May my friends Tom and Abi Hull lost their seven-month-old son Oli to what was later found to be pneumococcal meningitis. He spent the last day of his life at the Evelina children's hospital, where Tom and Abi said they received the best care and support a family could hope for in that situation. To help support the hospital's work I am running the Manchester marathon in memory of Oli - any donations will be very gratefully received. Thank you, Ben
