Tribute Funds

A Meningitis Trust Tribute Fund is a unique and lasting way to remember someone special.

The Tribute Fund is named after the person who has died and becomes a permanent memorial to them, whilst at the same time will help support those whose lives have been affected by meningitis.

When you, your family or friends donate to, or raise money for, the Trust in memory of your loved one, your donations will be added to your special Fund.

How will it help us?

The money raised through this special Fund will be used to continue to provide support and care for life for those affected by meningitis; raise awareness through education and training; and fund research into after-effects and after-care of this devastating disease.
