"The Meningitis Centre is striving to eliminate Meningitis in Australia by lobbying for vaccines and educating the community to be aware of the signs and symptoms. The Centre also provides support for families affected by the disease"
Family Support
The Meningitis Centre is dedicated to offering support services to families who have experienced all forms of meningitis as well as meningococcal or pneumococcal septicaemia.
The Centre provides access to written information about the disease and possible after effects. It also provides opportunities to talk to others who have experienced the disease and wish to share their personal experiences. Speaking to someone who has been through a similar experience can deliver immense benefits.
To find out more about the support options available please contact the Centre on 1800 250 223 or email meningitis@ichr.uwa.edu.au .
