Meningitis Trust 25th year

The Meningitis Trust celebrates a milestone in 2011 – its our 25th anniversary; a quarter of a century of supporting people as they face life after meningitis.

The world has changed a lot since we began, but much has remained the same – meningitis continues to be an every day threat to thousands of people.
