Dear Editor
I’d like to invite your readers to make a New Year’s resolution to help us fight back against the devastation of meningitis in 2020 by joining our New Year New You campaign.
I know only too well the misery meningitis can bring. I was just 16 when I contracted bacterial meningitis, which left me seriously ill in hospital. Thankfully, I made a good recovery but others are not so fortunate.
Now, we’re inviting everyone to join us and sign up for a Meningitis Now challenge or community event as part of our New Year New You campaign. We have lots to choose from, to suit all levels of fitness and interest, including treks, cycles and runs, in this country and abroad.
All the details are on our website at https://www.meningitisnow.org/
The serious point is that by doing so not only will you be getting in shape and achieving your personal goals but you will be making a real difference to those at risk of meningitis and those whose lives have already been changed forever because of it.
Money raised will help to fund preventative research, raise awareness and support those affected by the disease through Meningitis Now’s unique range of services.
Please join us if you can in 2020 – together we can make a difference and fight back against meningitis.
Thank you
Seema Jaswal
