At Meningitis Now, we know that many children and young people, who have had an experience of meningitis, will have a range of physical, emotional and psychological issues that are affecting their lives. Since the coronavirus pandemic began, we have seen evidence of how these issues may have become even greater, as lockdown and the requirements of social distancing limit people’s normal access to education, medical and social care services, and family support.
