Mike O’Reilly (Tom’s dad) Run for Team Harry

Mike O'Reilly comments:-

"My three sons all play rugby at Marlow RFC; on 26 April 2007 Harry Mills - a fellow youth rugby player - died of meningitis within 24 hours of contracting the disease. Meningitis was also responsible for the death of Nick Duncombe - potentially the best England scrum half of his generation - in February 2003.

Harry's parents have set up 'Team Harry' to raise money for the Meningitis Research Foundation to help to find the causes of the disease. I will be competing in the London Triathlon on 10th August 2008 as part of Team Mazda (pictured - Mike second from right back row) but mainly for Team Harry and the Meningitis Research Foundation. I would be very grateful for your support. Please annotate any DONATION with 'Team Harry'. Thank You."
