This year I am running the 2024 Great North Run on behalf of the Meningitis Research Foundation.

Meningitis Research Foundation is a leading international charity, working to defeat meningitis and septicaemia since 1989.

The Meningitis Research Foundation is a vital organization dedicated to defeating meningitis and septicaemia worldwide. Through rigorous scientific research, they aim to understand and combat these deadly diseases, advocating for increased awareness and vaccination.

MRF provides crucial support to affected families, offering resources and guidance to navigate the aftermath of these illnesses. Their educational campaigns strive to inform the public and healthcare professionals about the signs and symptoms, ensuring prompt and effective treatment. The foundation's tireless efforts in funding research, influencing policy, and supporting communities are instrumental in the global fight against meningitis and septicaemia.
