Sepsis Research FEAT is a registered charity (SC049399) and we are the UK’s only sepsis research charity. Sepsis accounts for around 50,000 deaths in the UK every year - that's more than breast and bowel cancer combined. 

We don't understand enough about sepsis and the biological processes that can lead to serious illness or even death. That is why we urgently need to increase funding:- to raise awareness of sepsis- for research: to understand the processes that lead to sepsis, to design effective treatments for it & to help save lives.

The 2021 Carol Service Collection - A message from the SVS Pupils’ Charity Committee

This year, our National Charity is Sepsis Research FEAT. Sepsis is a life-threatening condition caused by the body’s response to an infection.   

£13 enables us to collect and store one DNA sample for the purposes of research.

£25 recruits and trains a volunteer to carry out community sepsis awareness work such as talks to schools, companies and WI’s.

This improves the chances that patients will not make it to
ICUs in the first place, saving the NHS somewhere between £2000 and £5000 per day.

£100 pays for the provision of a year’s supply of sepsis
awareness cards/leaflets to a GP surgery.
