ON behalf of the Meningitis Trust I would like to thank all those people in the North West who took part in, or supported the Meningitis Trust's cross Morecambe Bay walk.
More than 250 people took part in the walk on Sunday, July 31 and the funds raised from the event are expected to exceed a fantastic £5,000. The Meningitis Trust relies heavily on funds raised from events such as the Morecambe Bay walk, as they allow it to provide much-needed support services - such as home visits and financial support grants - to thousands of families in the UK who are affected by meningitis every year.
I would particularly like to thank Grange-over-Sands tourist information manager and Meningitis Trust supporter Tracy Ingram for all the hard work she put in to organise this event. I would also like to thank the Queen's Guide to the sands Mr Cedric Robinson who led the walkers safely over the sands.
CHRISTINE HUGHES, Regional Development Officer for the North West.
