Story

Thank you everyone who has donated so far. Not far left to go now before we reach £2500!

This Summer I am climbing Mount Kilimanjaro in aid of the Meningitis Research Foundation. At 5,895m/19,340ft Mt Kilimanjaro is the highest mountain in Tanzania and in all Africa and I want to take on this challenge to raise much-needed funds for Meningitis Research foundation. I have committed myself to raising £2500 for MRF and very much need your support to achieve this target.

You can also text! Whoop! LJHR89 to 70070and the amount you would like to sponsor me to climb Mount Kilimanjaro - texting is free and all the donations will go to Meningitis Research Fund :) Hooray! 

 

 

Meningitis is a tragic disease which anyone can contract and the blood poisoning form of the disease can kill in a matter of hours. The Meningitis Research Foundation is a really worthwhile registered charity that fights death and disability from meningitis and associated infections by funding vital scientific research. 

Since MRF was founded in 1989, they have awarded 133 research grants, leading to many advances in the prevention, detection and treatment of meningitis and septicemia. MRF also promotes education and awareness about meningitis to reduce death and disability, and gives support to people affected.
