MORE than 100 people took part in a charity walk in memory of a Cudworth toddler who died of meningitis just three hours after the telltale rash appeared.
Family and friends turned out in force for Mia Barton Bright on Saturday, the 18-month-old who died on March 9, for the sponsored walk around Cudworth which was organised by her parents, Matthew and Rebecca, of Bretton View.
Proceeds generated will be donated to Meningitis Now, the charity which helped the couple after Mia’s death, and so far £1,425 has been raised from the day.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
