Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit the MumStuff JustGiving page.

The whole MumStuff team are taking part in the Milton Keynes 5KM Fun Run to help boost awareness of Group B Strep (GBS) and to raise lots of money for the national charity Group B Strep Support (GBSS).

Group B Strep (GBS) is a bacteria commonly found inhabiting the human digestive system (and often the vagina of adult women). It is normally harmless, however, it can be passed to newborn babies around childbirth, and in babies which then develop GBS infection, it can be very serious.

Group B Strep infections in newborn babies are usually preventable - so many of these horrible infections could be prevented.

July is Group B Strep awareness month and we are aiming to raise £250 for the cause. Every penny counts so please help us with this worthy cause. 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please, please, please dig deep and donate any spare pennies...
