Story

Our beautiful daughter andgranddaughter Maya died on 2nd August 2012.

Shewas our world, our life, our everything and she was taken from us in 16 hours.We didn't have time for anything, Maya was 21 months old. We will never forgetthat day.

Our family will never be the same with out her in our lives. We never want a family to have to go through what we are going through, so until I take my last breath I will raise money for this great cause.

Over £88,000 has been raised to date, to see all donations made in Maya's memory please visit https://www.meningitis.org/remembrance-funds/maya-ford

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.
