We fund research and raise awareness to create a world free from meningitis
Story
The World Series Of Pace Home Game has become a must for any serious poker player and this year’s game raised funds for Meningitis Research Foundation.
Many of you will have met our daughter, Holly, (the chip dolly in all home games so far). What you may not be aware of is that Holly’s special needs were caused by her getting meningitis when she was 4 weeks old. She’s now 21. For the last 20 years we’ve been closely involved with Meningitis Research Foundation.
We had huge support from everyone and raised a massive £17.5K on the night, added to the total on this site, we will exceed our target. Thank you all very, very much.
If you haven't yet donated, please consider adding to our marvellous amount on this site.
Meningitis is deadly; killing and seriously disabling in hours. Small children and young adults are high risk, but all ages can be affected. Globally 1,000 people die daily. We fundraise to invest in research, campaign for vaccines, provide symptom information and support those already affected.
