Story

We have set up this Facebook page as a tribute to Lloyd Sutton, he was a very important person in a lot of peoples lives who had the pleasure of knowing him and sharing many happy memories and laughs with him as he always knew how to put a smile on people’s faces. To us he was someone we could call a best friend and we have done for many years now, some of us growing up with him since nursery at Beckstone and some of us meeting him in secondary school at Workington Academy. We are all thankful to have been able to call Lloyd a best friend and had the honour of sharing many funny and joyful memories with him and always being there for us.

Unfortunately in October Lloyd passed away due to a rare and terrible disease known as bacterial meningitis. Bacterial meningitis is a more rare and serious form of meningitis which is an infection and inflammation of the fluid and protective membranes that surround the brain and the spinal cord.

As a tribute to Lloyd Sutton we are all going to be doing the Wainwrights in the Lake District, the Wainwrights consists of walks up 214 of the fells that surround the Lake District. We aim to raise as much money as possible by doing these walks every weekend, each weekend will consist of us doing several routes which cover several of the fells that qualify for the wainwrights and will result in us completing all 214 of the walks by the end of the year.

All donations will be going towards a charity known as Meningitis Now which aims to fight against meningitis within the UK and support those who are affected by the disease.

All donations would be very much appreciated and we would be very thankful if we could get as many people as we can donating and sharing the page for Lloyd Sutton and those affected by meningitis. Thanks.
