Story



Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page


I'm sure you're all aware of the devastating news to hit the headlines in February 2016 of the story that's touched so many lives following the tragic death of 2 year old Faye Burdett, who sadly died from meningitis on Valentine's Day.  Well, this beautiful little girl was a December 2013 baby, the same as my own daughter, who I had the pleasure of getting to know through Facebook sharing with her mum.    You will have learned about her tragic death through the publicity and on-line petition to government to insist on the vaccination of all children, not just babies, against Meningitis B


To continue the amazing work of Jenny and Neil, and the many others, whose lives have been touched by Faye’s passing, in raising awareness of the horrible disease I will be joining the MRF team in the Virgin London Marathon 2017 in Faye's memory.   .......Yes that’s right I will be taking part in a marathon!!!! (more than likely jogging, walking and crawling it, as for anyone who knows me running is not my strong point). 


So please, please, dig deep and help me to raise money for this fantastic cause and spread more awareness of Meningitis B.  Also please remember to boost your donation by making the statement that you wish to claim Gift Aid.   Gift Aid increases the value of your charity donation by 25% because the charity can reclaim the basic rate of tax on your gift at no extra cost to you.


Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
