Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I had never heard of sepsis until 31st March 2016.  Out of the blue, my wonderful friend, Rachel Clamp, suddenly passed away from the condition.  We had been on holiday with Rach and her lovely family only the week before. 

While googling 'Sepsis' I found the UK Sepsis Trust website, and was exciting to read that the charity would be educating and raising awareness at Glastonbury. After long three days of searching for the tent, we found it and I was extremely lucky to be offered their last charity place running in the Great North Run.  I feel honoured to run for Rachel.

Sepsis accounts for 48,000 deaths annually in the UK, that’s more than breast, bowel and prostate cancer put together. Sepsis is what happens when our immune system overreacts to an infection. Symptoms initially present as flu like but can rapidly deteriorate into a life threatening condition.
