100 Skips a Day in October · 1 October 2023 to 31 October 2023 ·
As you may know this is a charity very close to my heart and a cause I feel very passionate about.
GBB Support were invaluable to me after Willow was born so poorly and I feel strongly about the work they do in campaigning for more awareness, research and hospital trials.
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
