Story

We Need Your Support! : Every year, meningitis claims lives and leaves survivors with lifelong challenges. This devastating disease can strike without warning, affecting individuals of all ages. That’s why I’ve committed to trekking to Everest Base Camp in September to raise critical funds for the Meningitis Research Foundation—and I need your help to get there!

The Cause - Beating Meningitis : Meningitis is a fast-acting infection with life-threatening consequences. While vaccines and medical advances have saved many lives, there’s still so much work to be done. The Meningitis Research Foundation funds vital research to improve prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. Your donation will support this mission, helping to advance medical breakthroughs, provide essential resources for families, and raise awareness that can save lives.

The Trek : In just over a year, I’ll be undertaking a 2-week trek to Everest Base Camp, a challenge requiring both physical and mental preparation. This trek is not only a personal goal but a journey with purpose—every step taken and every mile conquered is dedicated to raising funds for meningitis research.

Throughout the coming year, I’ll be hosting multiple fundraising events and projects, bringing our community together to reach my goal of raising £4,300. This will directly support groundbreaking research and education programs funded by the Meningitis Research Foundation. Every contribution brings us closer to a world where meningitis no longer causes loss or suffering.

Join The Fight : You can be part of this journey with me. By donating, you’re not only supporting this trek but are helping to create a future where no family has to face the devastating impact of meningitis. Your generosity fuels this mission, helping to turn awareness into action and research into real, life-saving outcomes.

Please donate whatever you can, and share this campaign with friends, family, and colleagues. Together, we can make a profound difference and take steps towards ending meningitis for good. Thank you for your support—it means the world to me, to those impacted by meningitis, and to the future we’re creating together.
