Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

Over the next 8 months, I will be raising money for the meningitis research foundation. I am hoping to put on several events throughout this time and will be running a half marathon in spring. 

While I don't have a personal story related to meningitis, the two groups in society most affected by this disease are babies and students. Given that most of my friends are students, I will try to do what I can to help eradicate this disease before it affects someone that I know. It is a horrible disease that can kill in as little as 12 hours and often leaves survivors with permanent brain damage or amputated limbs. Any support you could give to help me reach my fundraising target would be massively appreciated.

Thank you
