Meningitis is a subject that we cover on our paediatric first aid courses, but such is the level of concern we are often asked for extra information or recommended avenues of support. In April 2013 the Meningitis Trust and Meningitis UK merged to form one larger and stronger organisation to further their shared aims. For those seeking information on Meningitis this means a single point of access to a wealth of information. So when asked for additional information on Meningitis or how to access help and support we don’t hesitate to recommend the Meningitis Trust website or point people towards its facebook page.
