Story

This year, I am taking on one of the toughest physical and mental challenges of my life: summiting Mount Kilimanjaro.

I am doing this to raise £5,000 for the Meningitis Research Foundation, a charity that works tirelessly to save lives and support families affected by meningitis and septicaemia.

Meningitis can progress incredibly quickly and can be life-changing or fatal if not treated in time. The work this charity does — funding research, raising awareness, and supporting those affected — genuinely saves lives.

My goal is to raise £5,000 by August 2026, and every single donation — no matter the size — makes a real difference.

If you’re unable to donate, sharing this page is just as valuable.

Thank you so much for your support — it truly means more than you know.
