London Marathon 2024 · 21 April 2024 ·

Meningitis Research Foundation is a charity driven by a passionate mission to prevent the devastating impact of meningitis. Founded by individuals whose lives were profoundly affected by meningitis, we are dedicated to enabling positive change by uniting people and knowledge to save lives.

Story

This year I will be taking part in the 2024 London Marathon running for the Meningitis Research Foundation, in memory of my sister Dominique Ellis.

Dominique was cruelly taken from us when she was just 5 and a half years old from streptococcal meningitis . Devastatingly, Drs had failed to recognise her symptoms.

I have seen first hand how devastating it has been for my family to lose our sister & daughter to this disease.

I would like to run and support this charity, whose vital research could save the lives of other children or adults who may come up against this life threatening infection. Please take a moment to look at this page and familiarise yourself with the possible symptoms, https://www.meningitis.org/meningitis/check-symptoms.

However small a donation is much appreciated to help me reach my fundraising goal.
