Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. Over the past 2 years I’ve been trying to raise lots of money for Meningitis Research. After a few drinks I convinced my father to get a back wax in aid of charity. Those who know him will know that he has quite a lot of he stuff to remove but we do like a challenge.

We are fundraising for Meningitis Research as 2 years ago some close friends lost their baby boy Myles at just 7 weeks old. We want to do as much as possible to raise awareness of the symptoms of Meningitis by funding their education programme as well as working on their immunisations for babies.

Many of you may not know that Christian also suffered from Meningitis as a teenager and had his mum not been aware of the symptoms and got him to hospital he may not be here today - testament to the fact that awareness is key.

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.

Meningitis is deadly; killing and seriously disabling in hours. Small children and young adults are high risk, but all ages can be affected. Globally 1,000 people die daily. We fundraise to invest in research, campaign for vaccines, provide symptom information and support those already affected.
