'Meningitis changed my life completely'

Cathy Trueman was a "gym freak" but now struggles to walk after contracting meningitis.

She wants to raise awareness that older people can contract the disease.

A recent survey by Meningitis Now suggested 95% of people did not think over 55-year-olds were at risk.

Ms Trueman said that she thought only babies and young people could catch it.
