Story

Georgia was an exceptional young lady and a very special friend to so many. She was beautiful, funny, clever, and compassionate. She was one of a kind and is greatly missed.

We are raising money for Meningitis UK - the brutal illness that tragically took Georgia away from us on her 18th Birthday.

On Friday 27th of July, using the equipment in the Sutton Grammar School gym ten or so of her friends, who attended the school, plan to spend 24 hours on the treadmills, bikes, concept rowers and crosstrainers in order to achieve an accumulated distance of 1175km, the distance between the gym and Tarascon in France. The reason we have chosen this location is because Georgia's family own a barn in the region and would go and stay there every year. It is also the place where this poignant photo of Georgia was taken

We would like to thank Sutton Grammar School for allowing us to use their equipment in our fundraising effort.
