The priorities for the money they raise is:
Research. They support research that finds new, and enhances existing, vaccines to save lives and prevent disability.
Support. They provide specialist support to help rebuild lives and ensure no-one has to face meningitis alone. The support is a lifeline to victims of meningitis and they will continue to reach out to everyone affected, with practical, financial and emotional support.
Awareness. They save lives through awareness and education, giving people the knowledge and confidence to say “I suspect meningitis” - fast action saves lives.
Campaign. They campaign for the introduction of licensed vaccines as soon as they are available in the UK, because time lost is lives lost. They fight for the rights of those affected and use our voice to make sure they get the very best care
