Raising money for

Meningitis UK

Charity Registration No. 1076774

Meningitis UK funds lifesaving research to find a vaccine to eradicate all forms of meningitis. Sadly the disease can be incredibly difficult to detect as the symptoms are similar to the common cold or flu, plus there are occasions when people show no, or very few, symptoms. For these reasons we believe the only way to truly eradicate the disease is through the development of a preventative vaccine, which is our sole focus. We are confident that with enough support, we will be able to put a stop to the heartache and devastation it causes.

My story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.

Ethan was a beautiful little boy who died of meningitis aged 18 months old. He was born on the 11th October 2006 and died on the 13th April 2008. He is sadly missed but forever in our hearts. Ethan was a warm, gentle and caring son - any contribution that you make would be extremely welcomed regardless of the amount. By donating in the name of Ethan, meningitis uk will be better equipped to help save more lives and work towards finding a vaccine. It's too late to save our little angel, but others can still have a chance.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to donate: Meningitis UK will receive your money electronically and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in Gift Aid will be added to your donation at no cost to you.

Please donate generously.

Many thanks for your support.

Andrew and Clare
