Cases of invasive meningococcal disease have increased significantly in the UK since 2022, and we need your help to achieve our goal that no one in the UK loses their life to meningitis, and those who are affected have everything they need to rebuild their lives.
Facebook fundraising is a brilliant way to raise awareness of our work amongst your friends and family whether they have direct experience of meningitis or not. Because you can squat any time of day, while you are waiting on the kettle to boil, during the adverts of your favourite TV show, or even on a zoom call if you like to keep moving while you work from home.
And you can do any squat you like, whether it’s gentle knee bends supported by a wall, or squatting with big weights or kettlebells, or just your classic, regular squat. It’s a simple way to support Meningitis Now in the New Year.
Meningitis can strike anyone, at any time, and so it remains vitally important that we are able to reach as many people as possible with our work – work that is made possible through generous fundraising.
We hope that all participants will feel inspired to raise funds that will allow us to support everyone who has experience of meningitis, and to work towards making meningitis a thing of the past.
Challengers will be encouraged and supported via a Facebook event group and will be able to share their progress with friends and family via their Facebook fundraising page.
Sign up today, join our Facebook group, and receive your free T-shirt and registration pack to get started.
The challenge commences on 1 January 2025. Good luck to all participants!
