In May 2020 I nearly died as a result of sepsis which, in my case, was triggered by Covid. I lost my hands and feet as a result of the treatment which saved my life.  When I came home from hospital, UK Sepsis Trust nurses helped me so much by providing advice and space to talk.

I'm now living and loving my second life and trying to raise awareness of disability and sepsis. I know that sharing my story has already helped others recognise sepsis and saved lives. Walking with Daisy wearing her Sepsis bandana I hope will raise awareness further, and also raise much needed funds.

From UK Sepsis Trust:

Fundraising is at the heart of our fight against sepsis. It raises awareness, and sparks the question: What is sepsis? In this way, fundraising can help prevent thousands of deaths & unnecessary suffering through knowledge & awareness of the symptoms.It also funds our vital support work, Public Awareness, Educating Health Professionals & helping people adjust to life after sepsis through accessing our Support Group network. We also lobby government to support our cause and makes vital changes in areas such as the NHS.
