| Swine flu | Calling all runners in training |
 |
With swine flu so much in the news, the Foundation issued a warning not to be complacent about meningitis and septicaemia as the diseases have similar early symptoms. |
We feel your pain, or more precisely Caitlin Dula from our Scotland office feels your pain. Share her highs and lows as she heads towards the Great North Run on September 20 in her blog on our new website and let us know your thoughts on running for the Foundation. |

Take a Titanic leap
Thrill seekers, on 31 October at Titanic’s Dock and Pump-House at the Northern Ireland Science Park in Belfast get hoisted in a specially built pod 100 feet into the air, then jump, feet first, and hurtle towards the ground - stopping a few feet before the ground and coming gently to rest on your feet. We guarantee the most amazing adrenaline rush of your life! Places are strictly limited. Call Emma to register your interest now on 028 90321283 or email emma@meningitis-ni.org |
