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

Hi folks and thanks for visiting my page.  As many of you know I spent 5 days in hospital in January after contracting meningitis and though I was very very lucky and recovered with very few side effects, the meningitis Trust were there for me, and have been in regular contact since, in the run up to my wedding which took place on 27th of June this year and was a magical day.

So I wanted to give something back to the Meningitis Trust and though I had pin badges and a collection tin on the bar at the wedding, for me that wasn't nearly enough so I decided to yet again combine the wedding with some fundraising and I am going to Trash my Dress!!!!  YES I really am going to trash the dress you see in the picture opposite, the ACTUAL one I wore to be married in. 

So if you can find it in your heart to sponsor me for this very worthwhile cause, without which I truly believe my recovery wouldn't have been so fast then we would all be very grateful.  Details of the photoshoot coming as soon as we have them all arranged.
