Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On October 25th 2015 I will be taking part in the Venice Marathon in memory of Hannah King, an absolutely beautiful person taken far too soon. Hannah and all of her family are loved by so many and so any donations would be hugely appreciated by all of us to aid the research of meningitis to prevent such a tragedy occurring to anyone else.

A memory that stands out for me is an afternoon spent at the beach with the Kings.  JK, Hannah and I dug holes, built sandcastles all afternoon and she convinced me it was actually okay to like Maroon 5. Despite JK and I being younger we had such a funny afternoon. Many older siblings wouldn't have much time for their brother's friends but not Hannah. She was considerate, intelligent, funny and is missed and loved by us all.
