I WAS saddened to read in your recent article that Marley Goldsack-Renshall was struck down with bacterial and viral meningitis.
Everyone at Meningitis Now was touched that he is on the road to recovery and is celebrating his first birthday on Sunday 14 June.
We wish him and her family the best for the future.
Meningitis Now is fighting back on all fronts by funding research to eradicate the disease alongside supporting, those touched by meningitis, with lifelong help and care.
We also distribute a range of awareness materials highlighting the common symptoms and need to act quickly, which can mean the difference between life and death.
We have Community Support Officers in the area, ready to help anyone touched by the disease.
If anyone would like a free symptoms information pack, including wallet-sized symptoms cards or support, please call our freephone helpline on 0808 80 10 388 or visit www.MeningitisNow.org.
