Story

My amazing Dad passed away at the young age of 47. Normally fit and well (and never taking a day off sick) unfortunately he contracted meningitis and was admitted to hospital on the Wednesday and sadly died on the Sunday. He was a caring man who always thought of others. He left behind, his wife, me, my brother, my 2 stepbrothers and stepsister. As well as both of his parents and his brother and sister. Nearly 16 years on and we still all miss him terrible and still have a voice in our lives where he used to be. He never got to meet his 10 grandchildren but love hearing stories about grandad Martin that they never to meet! Any money we can raise in his memory to help beat this disease is amazing. Thanks for reading x - Dawn Wren

Meningitis is deadly; killing and seriously disabling in hours. Small children and young adults are high risk, but all ages can be affected. Globally 1,000 people die daily. We fundraise to invest in research, campaign for vaccines, provide symptom information and support those already affected.
