Meningitis Now is the new name for Meningitis UK and Meningitis Trust. It’s a new name but we have the same goals - to save lives and rebuild futures by funding research, raising awareness and providing support.

Our Health Unlocked pages will be updated shortly to reflect our new name and logo.

Our new name reflects:

•Our clear focus on meningitis

•The need for action now on the development and introduction of new vaccines, taking action if meningitis is suspected and providing support

•The need to use our voice to address whatever the issues are now –issues that will change over time

•The fact we will be here now- whether we are talking today or in the future – for as long as meningitis and its impact remain an issue

A much needed voice for all of us touched by this scary and horrible disease.

Please fight for us now and for our future.

We need you to be strong and forthright, to represent us at the highest levels in our fight for the Men b vaccine.

And most importantly united in the effort to be rid of Meningitis altogether.

Thank you.

Eve. ( Bereft grandparent)

Thanks for your responses. We will do our very best to fight this horrible illness and ensure everyone affected receives the support they need. We will not give up until meningitis and its impact are no longer an issue.
