Hi Arlene. We welcome the recent positive decision by the European Medicines Agency to recommend approval for a new 13-valent pneumococcal vaccine for children aged 6 weeks to 5 years of age.
On our blog, Medical Information Officer, Claire Knight, discusses why we need new pneumococcal vaccines and what this means for preventing pneumococcal meningitis.

 Loads of fun for the kids among this year’s Christmas cards and gifts.
The Colour Me Rudolph and Santa twinpack needs some creative little hands and crayons to bring it to life, while the Night Before Christmas Kit has all you need to get in touch with Santa and his team and welcome them on the big day.
Available direct from the website or from our office on Botanic Avenue in Belfast.

 We’ve locked up our Northern Ireland team and we’ve thrown away the key. The only way we’ll let them out for Christmas is by raising £2500 in bail money.
Have a heart and show your support by donating on-line, calling 028 90321283, or posting cheques, made payable to Meningitis Research Foundation, to 71 Botanic Avenue, Belfast BT7 1JL.
All the money raised by this brave team will help in our fight against meningitis and septicaemia.
