Today is World Mental Health Day!
For those impacted by meningitis, mental health is just as important as physical health. The trauma, stress, and anxiety that come with a meningitis diagnosis or a loss of someone to meningitis can be overwhelming.

We think #Meningitis will never come to our door - but it does. Then we realise how little we know. Siobhan from @ACT4Meningitis was quite literally a lifeline to us, particularly with after care. We are indebted to her & the charity. Listen-tomorrow @virginmedia
Tune in tomorrow morning! 💙
Catch Siobhan from ACT for Meningitis on The Claire Byrne Show on Newstalk at 10:15am.
Siobhan will be talking about ACT for Meningitis, the work we do supporting families and raising awareness of meningitis.
World Meningitis Day 2026

Today is world meningitis day, Jennifer was 3 months old when she got meningococcal septicemia, it started 7 weeks in icu. It was heartbreaking seeing her go through it, her heart stopping at one stage and her lungs collapsed 🥲 #worldmeningitisday
