Our Meningitis and Septicaemia Book of Experience

“What does meningitis feel like?” 

“What does meningitis look like?”  

“What is it like to survive meningitis?”  

These are three of the questions many people have about meningitis and it is these questions that our Book of Experience answers, with its unique picture of how meningitis and septicaemia has affected individuals, families and whole communities.  

Told in their own words, our Book of Experience documents the lived experiences of those directly impacted by meningitis and septicaemia, through illness, bereavement loss and disability. Thank you to all our contributors, who so bravely share their stories so others can understand the impact of these illnesses.  

Read on for the individual stories that drive us to campaign for a world free of meningitis and septicaemia.
