Story

The Biggest Challenge

Meningitis Now face our biggest ever challenge. Will you stand with us?

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a huge impact on all our lives. One thing that has been significantly affected is fundraising and this is very much the case here at Meningitis Now. With events cancelled and much of our usual fundraising unable to happen as normal, we face a big drop in our income.

Simply put, we dont have enough money to continue all our vital work funding research, raising awareness and providing support for those affected by meningitis.

Over the past 35 years, Meningitis Now have been proud to be there for people as they have faced what is for many, their biggest challenge meningitis. Now we face our biggest challenge the unprecedented impact that this pandemic has had on our fundraising income.

We are asking our supporters to stand with us as we face our Biggest Challenge.

Meningitis Nows Executive Founder Steve Dayman says, When we first set up this charity, there were no vaccines to prevent meningitis, very little support for families who were suffering the trauma it caused and no public awareness whatsoever. It was a huge challenge, but people nationwide rallied to our fight against meningitis and together weve made a historic difference.

Today we face another enormous challenge. The COVID-19 pandemic has hit our charity hard. And the fight is far from over. Please help us continue our vital work.

If you can, please pledge your support today. Make a donation. Sign up for a virtual event. Take on a fundraising challenge. Raise money in your community.

The fight against meningitis isnt over. Every donation you make will help us continue to save lives, rebuild futures and keep going until the fight is won. Thank you.
