Hi everyone,

At the Meningitis Trust we urgently need help to raise vital awareness of meningitis. Would you be willing to share your story?

We are concerned to find in a recent study that 5.3m adults in the UK cannot name a symptom of meningitis.

Your stories cannot only help others who have been through a similar experience, but help prevent meningitis causing devastation to someone else’s life.

If you would be interested in sharing your story please let us know as soon as possible - email me at emilys@meningitis-trust.org.

Thank you,

Emily

Hi Emily. I was sent the paperwork to 'Share my Story' back in April. Unfortunately getting round to fill it out seems to be a stumbling block and I don't know why other than that seems to be a problem I have now generally. Will do my best to give it my attention very soon as I do think my 'story' would be helpful.
