This April, Ben & Liz will be taking on the London Marathon in aid of Meningitis Now!

Meningitis is a cruel illness that remains remarkably common. Sadly, most of know of a family who have been impacted.

Please support us, as we raise money, and awareness for Meningitis Now.

Meningitis Now is the UK's largest meningitis charity, offering support, funding research and raising awareness (more information below).

Please support us with whatever you can, every penny counts.

Thanking you so much!

Love,

Ben & Liz
