Story

Hello! Welcome to my online sponsorship page! :-) 

On the 19th of September I took part in the Bupa Great North Run to raise money for Meningitis UK!  I ran in memory of a friend and work colleague Mark Phillips who died at the young age of 26 because he had Meningococcal septicaemia.

Results...

I ran all 13.1 miles in 2 hours 11 minutes and 47 seconds!  If you would like to sponsor me there is still time as this page will stay open for another 3 months! :)

Meningitis UK’s vision is a vaccine to eradicate all forms of meningitis.

Every week, six families have to face the sudden tragedy of losing a loved one to this devastating disease.

Because it can kill in under four hours and the symptoms are notoriously difficult to spot, and believe a preventative vaccine is the only way to spare people this heartache.

Meningitis UK's Search 4 a Vaccine Campaign aims to raise £7million to help fund cutting-edge research to help them achieve this goal and save thousands of lives in the future.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and sponsor me now.  ;-)  

A big thank you to everyone who has sponsored me so far both on and offline - it means so much to me and Meningitis UK ! :-)

I would like to give a special mention to the staff at KAC Alarm Company who have kindly donated £59 offline and to staff at ACS who have donated £35!

Thank you so much for your support.

Many Thanks, Heather Shore
