Story

The AJ Bell Great Manchester Run is the citys original and best-loved running event and in true Mancunian style, its a party from start to finish, with a high-energy soundtrack, live music, and entertainment zones at every turn.

Group B Streptococcus 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 group B Strep 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 group B Strep infections are preventable. Group B Strep Support informs families & health professionals about group B Strep to save tiny lives.
