Due to the recent outbreak, St John Ambulance has the following advice:

"Following the recent meningitis outbreak in Kent, we wanted to take a few minutes to remind you, or teach you, the signs and symptoms of meningitis and what to do if you suspect it.

While the symptom everyone associates most typically with meningitis is a rash that does not disappear when pressed with a glass, it’s important to know that a rash can be a late sign, or may not appear at all. The symptoms below are the most common, they may appear in any order or may not appear at all.

If you suspect someone has meningitis or septicaemia (sepsis), call 999 or 112 immediately, or take them to your nearest emergency department straight away, so they can get urgent treatment as soon as possible as deterioration can happen rapidly.  

We’re currently recruiting for a new role in the team: Specification Support (Maternity Cover – with potential to become permanent).

This is a great opportunity for someone with ironmongery experience or a DipGAI qualification who’s looking to grow within a supportive and knowledgeable team.

The full job description is now live on LinkedIn if you’d like to take a look.

As always, referrals are hugely valuable to us, so please do keep us in mind if someone comes to mind.
