Watching Gaynor Simpson's story when her son Ross was diagnosed with meningitis, you'll understand just how quickly lives can change. Meningitis onset can be very sudden, and every year it affects people and families in ways that are truly devastating.
As thousands of young people prepare to head off to University or College, now is the time to act. If you're under 25, check if you're eligible for the MenB vaccine, and if your son or daughter is starting this new chapter of their lives, please make sure they're vaccinated.
More information can be found on: https: Public Health Scotland //www.nhsinform.scot/menb-youngpeople - know the signs and symptoms and encourage your friends and family to do the same. Staying vigilant and acting quickly can save lives.
🧡 We're also proud to be organising the Scottish Gala Dinner in aid of Meningitis Now on Friday 4th September at the wonderful Moulsdale Foundation Museum. Every ticket and donation supports to saving lives and rebuilding futures. For more information please visit: https://mngaladinner.com
