Story

Hello everyone!

I think it's time....

I know, I know... you will be extremely sad to see it go but a promise is a promise so the beard and hair are out the door for the new year, and no better way than having a 'Big Shave Off' to raise vital funds for a charity extremely close to our hearts - Meningitis now

Meningitis Now is making a real difference in the world by funding research into new treatments and providing support to families affected by meningitis. With your help, we can make sure that this service continues for those affected by Meningitis.

We have all of this evening to try and reach our goal of £250. Our plan of action is to hit the New Year with a bang and say goodbye to the locks on the 01/01/24...

Please donate whatever you can to help us reach our goal. Every penny counts, and we’re so grateful for your support.

Pneumococcal meningitis is a severe, life threatening form of meningitis and no parent ever wants to hear those words. Our Son Joshua, while still living with the after effects that this deadly disease leaves behind kicked meningitis butt! We are extremely blessed.

Learn the signs. Sometimes there is no rash.. and when there is it is in very late sepsis stages. Early Intervention is everything.
