25th Anniversary Walk · 23 May 2014 to 30 May 2014 ·

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.

Story

On the 29th May Liz and I will be taking part in the Meningitis Research Foundations (MRF) Edale to Glossop leg of the MRF's 25th Anniversary walk (handily where Liz lives!) .

Most of you will be aware that  In 2001 at the age of 18 our childhood friend Jennie died from Meningitis B and a few years later my cousin Becky also had the disease, luckily making a full recovery. 

After I (Adel) ran the London Marathon in April 2013  for the MRF (for a second time!), I decided to take a little break from marathon running to became a Community Ambassador for the MRF.  In February 2014 I even started my public speaking career with an Awareness talk on Meningitis for primary school children, nerve racking but very rewarding!

I hope you will continue to support the MRF, any sponsorship is much appreciated.

Lots of Love,

Adel & Liz
