How we help

We help and support around 20,000 people every year, and provide a range of free services. We never want anyone to suffer alone.

Support for life

We can:

• Listen; and answer your questions about meningitis and its life-changing impact, and talk to you about your individual experience and how we can tailor our help to you.
• Visit you in your own home and provide support locally to you.
• Put you in touch with others who have been through it too.
• Provide financial assistance to help make life that little bit easier.
• Support you and those closest to you; children, teenagers and adults

We will make you a priority; we have no waiting lists for our services

Requesting a home visit can be a great starting point.

Making people aware of meningitis dangers

As well as helping people who have had the disease, we are also committed to raising awareness of the signs and symptoms of meningitis. To do this we produce and distribute millions of leaflets, posters and symptoms cards every year. We also go out into the community and talk to different groups, including mother and toddler groups, schools, colleges, universities and St. John Ambulance groups. We know raising awareness of meningitis signs and symptoms saves lives.

 

"So many thanks to everyone at the Trust. I don't think I would have coped without your support."
