Shaun McEntee is running 100 miles from Kidderminster to Anfield to raise $5,000 for Meningitis Now, honoring his friend Aaron Mills, a university student who died from meningitis B — a tragedy that exposed a critical gap in vaccination for young adults. Inspired by Aaron’s parents’ campaign, Shaun is stopping at universities along the way to spread awareness about the now-available vaccine, urging students to protect themselves. With five days to go and overwhelming public support, his journey is a moving tribute to Aaron and a powerful call to action for prevention.
