In the 40 years since Meningitis Now was founded, we have funded research, provided support & worked to raise the public's awareness of the disease. Our vision is a future where no one in the UK loses their life to meningitis & everyone affected gets the support they need to rebuild their lives.

Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page. I had meningitis in 2007 and it was a scarey experience for both me and my family.  I've made a full recovery, but I want to raise funds for Meningitis Trust, who support those affected by meningitis, both emotionally and financially.
I'm cycling from the Irish Sea to the North Sea with a couple of buddies on the weekend of 2nd May, your support would be greatly appreciated.

I'm pleased to report I made it safely to the finish, reaching Tynemouth on Monday lunchtime.  Ally and I both survived unscathed, unfortunately Alan came a cropper on Saturday and broke his arm, so had to drop out.  The fundraising has been amazing, with the online donations, offline pledges and gift aid we have raised over £1500 for Meningitis Trust.  Thank you to every one (but feel free to donate again!).


Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Meningitis Trust gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!
