Our vision is a future where no one in the UK loses their life to meningitis and everyone affected gets the support they need to rebuild their lives. Meningitis Now is the first meningitis patient group in the world, founders of the meningitis movement and the only charity dedicated to fighting meningitis in the UK. The impact of meningitis is devastating - leaving people bereaved or facing a future with lifelong disability. Even if the outcome of meningitis is a positive one, the trauma of going through the disease or watching a loved one fight for their life can remain. We can provide information on signs and symptoms of Meningitis and ways in which we can help you and your family after Meningitis, including latest news, events and how you can volunteer.
