Danielle Martin's fiancé , Daniel Bruce (pictured right), died of meningococcal meningitis and septicaemia aged 25.

Danielle says, "I never realised that meningitis and septicaemia could affect fit and healthy young men like Daniel, as well as babies or young children. I now know that these diseases can affect anyone of any age. By supporting Meningitis Research Foundation I feel that I can help fight back against these dreadful diseases that cause such devastation to families."
