Story

Group B Streptococcus (GBS) is the UK's most common cause of life-threatening infection in newborn babies and of meningitis in babies under age 3 months. On average in the UK, at least-two babies a day develop a GBS infection, one baby a week dies from their GBS infection, and one baby a week survives with long-term disabilities – physical, mental or both. Yet most GBS infections are preventable. GBS support informs families and health professionals about GBS to save tiny lives.

Irwin Mitchell work closely with this amazing charity and we would appreciate you supporting us to help raise funds, as they do not receive any government funding and without support they wouldn't be able to continue their work to stop GBS.
