The popular swim school, Turtle Tots, launched their campaign Splash Now to support Meningitis Now in 2020. Since then, the campaign has raised over £84,000.
Meningitis Now is the exclusive charity partner of Turtle Tots, a national franchise with 51 locations across the UK. The company became involved in raising funds following the death of baby Clara, who sadly lost her battle with meningitis at 10 months old.
As we begin a new year, we want to look back at the 2023 Splash Now campaign which raised £11,912.32! This incredible sum will help Meningitis Now provide emotional, practical and financial support for families affected by meningitis.
Fiona Vittery, who was this year’s top fundraising franchise, says:
“As a business owner it’s always been important to me to give back to the community where possible. Splash Now is an amazing opportunity to do this, by raising awareness for Meningitis Now and raising lots of money."
"We had an amazing time in the pool this year for our sponsored swims and it was amazing to see so many families getting involved and fundraising for the charity. It’s a great opportunity to add a new element to the weekly lessons and do something good at the same time. Meningitis Now is such a great charity to work with and really make the process simple for us to use.”
