About Meningitis Research Foundation
Meningitis Research Foundation is a registered charity established in 1989. With over 15,000 individual members and supporters with personal experience of meningitis and septicaemia, MRF is working towards a world free from meningitis and septicaemia.
Our Vision is a world free from meningitis and septicaemia.
We aim to achieve this by funding research to prevent meningitis and septicaemia, and to improve survival rates and outcomes.
We also promote education and awareness to reduce death and disability, and give support to people affected.

Advances in the awareness of symptoms, better understanding of treatment and, above all, the possibility of prevention through vaccination, all these are now very much in evidence. On every front Meningitis Research Foundation has played its part, learning as we have gone along, helping to bring about change and make a difference for good.
Well over 40% of our income comes from Members and supporters, as they provide around half of voluntary donations and income from fundraising events. We also have tremendous support from numerous Foundations and Trusts, as well as corporate partners.
