My friend Poppy passed away nearly two months ago now (jeeze, it's two months a week on Sunday!) from anaphylactic shock caused by an insect bite. She was just 19.

Poppy was as selfless a person as you'd ever meet. Nothing was ever too much for her if it meant she'd be helping people. Her passion for life was evident; she was accepted to start studying Medicine this September (having completed a year doing BioMed after missing her offer narrowly in 2008, she didn't let it stop her and worked hard to get onto the medicine course) and she was always doing some kind of charitable act. Not wanting her memory or reason for living to be forgotten, we've organised a 5 mile run around our town in order to raise money for Anaphylaxis UK - a charity that researches into allergies and is working towards making more effective medication for sufferers.

Please, if you have any money spare, anything at all, donate it, I really want to see the total over £1000! It would be such a great achievement if we could raise that much. Even £1 or £2 would be such a great contribution.

I feel awkward posting this here, but I am so desperate to get us up and over £1000. It's such a great cause, I hope that she's looking down and is pleased with what we're doing. At the end of the day - it's what she was all about.
