A few of us from Warwick Med School are running the Berlin Marathon for the Meningitis Trust. We will be dragging our ourselves across 26.2 miles of torture and would appreciate your support!

Runners: Simon Lynes, Sally Martin, Helen Livesey, Rhian Sheppeard, Jo Stephenson, Georgie Pocock, James Wilson, Idan Bokobza, Nik Sanyal, Helen Munday

The money raised will go into the Jamie Burdett tribute fund held at the Meningitis Trust, in memory of a friend who passed away from meningitis four years ago. Every amount you donate, big or small, makes a massive difference to the charity so please give what you can.
