A CHARITY fighting against meningitis is calling on residents in Worcester to help celebrate its 30th anniversary.

Meningitis Now, which raises awareness of the disease and helps fund research, has launched an photo-wall on its website.

Anyone affected by the condition can share their stories and pictures online, and pay tribute to the meningitis movement's achievements over the past three decades.

Amanda Oxford, director of fundraising and communications at Meningitis Now, said: "We are constantly inspired by the courage and determination of families affected by meningitis.

"We want to showcase as many stories from the last 30 years as we can, and use this inspiration to create national awareness of the ongoing fight against meningitis."

The charity also hopes to raise £2 million to promote vaccine uptake amongst members of the public.
